[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 272287, member: 6705"] Not bad. difficult child 2 got me roses through school, difficult child 1 made me a bag with a flower & a card (this is the first MD [I]anything[/I] I have ever gotten from her). Also she and husband did a smidge of cleaning in the house. I informed them I wasn't doing [I]anything useful[/I] at all on Sunday. Hahaha. Joke was on me. husband worked Saturday night so I expected him to come home & go to sleep. Yeah. I did take a nap mid-day. Then he decided to take one. Fine, but then he wouldn't get up when he said to wake him. BM brought difficult child 2 back an hour and a half late, he came in crying because she told him it was his fault he forgot his backpack [I]and[/I] that he thought he was supposed to be back later. How is that HIS fault? Got him calmed down and popsicled. Dishes piled in sink, difficult child 1 demanding I go get husband's nail clippers for her. Uh huh. Reminded her I'm on strike. So it was good until about 4:40 PM! Then it was like, OK, day's over, back to normal. Sigh. I did get a cute card from my Mom, and from father in law, and from mother in law too. Perhaps someday I will get husband trained in that... I'm the one that buys all the cards! (We have a drawer full of emergency backup cards... He could even dig there!) Well, it could have been worse. At least I got remembered. And I'm probably being picky. There are a lot of moms who have it a lot worse than I do. [/QUOTE]
