No church yesterday, but that was okay. KidFour's father came up that early, so I stayed to be here to say hello. It was a little surreal--KidThree was cheerful and friendly and on her best behavior. I almost prefer the outright hostility because that is something I can trust.
KidThree spent the night at her grandmother's and KidOne spent the night at her boyfriend's, so I had the apartment to myself. I stayed up 'til eleven to watch an SVU marathon, then went to bed. Sleep, blessed sleep, until 7:30! Then I went right back to sleep for another hour. Now up having my coffee and watching a CSI marathon. There are dishes and laundry waiting, but who cares--I can do those when kids are around. Right Now is for me.
KidOne has promised me some time in the next day or two to help me assemble the new bed for the living room. When that is done, I'll do the modifications of the tv table to get that finished. That will be a relief. The next project will be KidThree's room. Some of her things are in my room because hers was crowded with the extra furniture for KidFour. That furniture will go away in about ten days. I've told KidFour she can take it with her if she needs it, otherwise, I'll put it on craigslist. The things aren't worth very much, they just need to be gone, so I'll put them on there for free. I've done that before--it works beautifully. Things are spoken for within five minutes of posting, and picked up within a day.
Nothing more to say for now; things are so quiet here I want to just enjoy it. The second cup of coffee is ready and I'll work on my crocheting.
