Thought I would post something because I'm bored with no one to talk to. My wife is visiting her parents and family back in Thailand. She took the kids with her so the house is empty. They will be gone until the end of May. I am supposed to be working on the house, While they are gone. Remodeling the living room.
what kind of remodeling? I have some projects on my list, as well.

If you are like me, they will come home and nothing will have been accomplished :)
 
I get time alone in my house and it is incredibly relaxing....... and I am never bored.... but, in the last 4 years I think it has only happened about twice

My house is an 1876 second empire Victorian. I gutted the living room down to studs. So I have electrical to do, hang sheetrock and finish then hang crown molding that will need to be custom made. Then build a harth for the pellet stove. Then paint everything.

Don't forget the insulation.
 
I feel guilty. I've never been bored.

Well, it's official, I have been fired from my girl scout troop.

A bid of mixed feelings, but it's cool. The program was too fluffy for my taste.
The girls are great, their mothers not so much.

In any case, it was the result of my own actions, losing my temper with the girls.

Little monsters probably deserved it.
 
LOL! Well they did some button pushing. But they are good girls!

Sue and I have raised ten kids. I think anybody who has raised kids knows perfectly well that sometimes the grubby little kneebiters NEED to get chewed on a little bit.

Yes, they do.
But in the end, the ones who do make mistakes, and the ones who do not do will harp about it.
 
The ones who do not, are deluding themselves. Nobody is perfect.

Nah. Since they don't put themselves out, they don't F up.
It's easy. And it's easier to harp on the mistakes of others.
They have the perfect track record: No Mistakes.

Aside from never communicating their expectations, never supporting, or actually actively sabotaging....but everything flies under the radar.

I mean I am trying to be cool with it, and for the most part I am.

but it is not my style of dealing with problems by walking away.

yes, the girls have been pills at times, but they are teens. The parents ought to know better, considering that they are considering themselves professionals in responsible positions, dealing with people.
