Last night, just as I returned from driving to a nearby country store for butter so I could make a cake from scratch, the MIL called me! Guess what she wanted. Guess! To take the girls off my hands for a few hours so I could “rest” or do whatever. Wow! I was stunned. Hell yeah you can take the girls. I brought them this morning around 9ish and she seemed happy to have them and was making breakfast for them even!
I am cleaning like a maniac. I just did the living room and now I’m on a break. Only three more rooms to go and then I’ll go get them and take them to the pool (maybe). I borrowed MIL’s carpet cleaner so I could clean our nasty carpet. I found a slipcover I bought for the fugly flowered loveseat and put that on and it looks 100% better. I should take a pic of our little living room later after I clean the carpet.
Well, the girls seemed excited to go see “Ma” so I am happy. She hasn’t spent more than two hours with them in the last month so maybe she decided she missed them? Who knows? I’m not asking questions. I’m just grateful.
Not to be cynical here but is the other shoe going to drop?
Nice! Don’t ask questions, that’s right. I’m really glad she took it upon herself to offer and follow through with it. That’s amazing!
Time to yourself to ‘rest’ and you clean! LOL! Sounds familiar!
