D1 and D2 are home again. they flew in today - i had to leave a meeting to go get them. they were starved. we stopped at panera and got a bite to eat. D2 was in the garage, i went and put my arms around her and she started to cry. she wanted to stay with me - not go to her dad's house. i told her that was fine - and let her cry some more. she needs me - i know they all do - but she really is in that time of her life where she needs her mom. that makes me happy. i don't want her to be sad - but i have been feeling a bit low about the girls all going to school 45 minutes away. so many people say, "how do you do it?" i just say i do what is best for the girls. it is hard - i don't know if it is right - but i will never make them feel they are in the middle of something between their dad and me.
TBW and i had a wonderful weekend. we got a lot of furniture brought in and rearranged from my mom's house. she feels a part of us now. the house looks wonderful. we went to a cookout on the 4th - were able to see the fireworks from our back yard - with our arms wrapped around each other - it was awesome. we had some friends over on the 5th - more good times. on sunday - we just went to the pool.
we watched the bucket list this weekend. it was predictable but it was good. got us to thinking about what would be on our list. then we were talking - would it be different if we knew we were dying? what would we do? TBW said she would just like to live by the beach. i don't know...
i need to think about it. What is on your list?
