I hate being a general contractor. Coordinating everything is not all that it is cracked up to be. Now we are having the floor redone. Soo everything literally has to be out of the kitchen! Not just the cabinets removed- but all the furniture, fridge, and other free standing things. Yup totally empty. Nice birthday present though. We picked a nice faux wood vinyl.
Zeth survived roller skating on Saturday. We had Sam and Sarah over and it all worked out very well. Zeth was upset when they had to go home which was going to be expected.
Had to take care of a few things. but I am back at the blogging. Picked up kids from school met with electrician, checked mail, cooked dinner-tacos. Ya know the family stuff.
Zeth made it through his birthday. Allie is still working on responsibility. She does not realize her Mp3 player is mia. Don has it in the office because he found it outside in the middle of the yard. For her to just leave it shows she is not ready for the responsibility of owning something that has value. It is just expected to give to her. I blame that on the system. She does not need anything. To her it is expected from the previous years-she is receiving all types of things with no concept of money or having to take care of them. That is a big soap box for me. THe system has many flaws and this is a big one. THese kids are conditioned to expect things to be given to them and to continue to live in a throw away society. If it breaks, throw it out, someone will give you a new one.
