Tobias losing his manhood,
Harriet?Ooooh,
Kathryn, another person juggling Christmas scheduling.
OKay too.
I was on the phone with DD2 till after 1:00 this morning. She just did not want to get off. She is an extraordinarily cheery and forgiving person. She was just clueless about what all the Christmas problems were, and talked me into coming to her house first Saturday - which is what I was hoping for all along. How long we stay will be determined how I handle things with DD2, who has formalized her food plans based on what I told her under duress yesterday.
I hate perfectionism (mine and DD1's) and find lack of organization and SHE qualities annoying (DD2).
DD2 was just thinking out loud when she disinvited us at a stressful overwhelming time after several heavy working days. She has an impossible work schedule and I was trying to wait it out to see how she managed...but DD1 was having none of this waiting to see stuff. ...sigh.... now to straighten things out with DD1 which actually has me a little worried.
Good thing, if I tell DH everything's ok he'll be happy as a lark and go and do whatever I say.
Anybody else here think out loud while making plans? That's what DD2 was doing. DH does that all the time and I've trained myself not to rely on what he says right away. He's made us several houses (in his head
) even with drawing up plans...so I don't get frustrated with him much any more. Now I must train myself to do that with DD2...and the hard part get DD1 to have patience with us. Sheesh.
I simply couldn't sleep last night and ended up on the couch, have managed to get my days and nights mixed up again and boy that habit was hard for me to break, and instantly goes back to that if I have a bad night or two...
Off to wrap presents now.
