It sounds like you are in a really great place with CM and your children (including the bonus ones).

Here is the link to the original post about the fire. I AM in a good place, for the most part, and am truly looking forward to 2009 in a way that I haven't before!

Merry Christmas!

I find myself daydreaming about the weather in July. You know, about 100 degrees outside?? We are in for more tonight and tomorrow too! It's about -9 here now.

CM and the girls are supposed to be coming for dinner tomorrow night, then on to watch DD play her basketball game. The girls mom is something of a trial for them, but seems to like me well enough, so she is letting them off of whatever she had planned for them, so they could come watch the game. Never mind that we've had this planned for several weeks now!! She's one of those 'its all about me' kind of people, and I can see why she is CM's ex!! I feel that it isn't my place to interfere, and it only gets worse for the girls when CM interferes, no matter how right he is.

I keep thinking I should connect CM's ex with my former inlaws, just for the fun of seeing who would explode first??? I know, naughty of me. Santa probably will bring me coal for that thought, but oh well....

Do you suppose it's even possible for 2009 to be better??? 2008 has been pretty dang fine! I look back at some of the things CM has done, and realize that the ex would have never put himself out there like that for me. Just another example of why the man is an X. I've been so happy lately that I even found myself wishing the ex a merry christmas when I ran into him yesterday. I may just find it in me to make being nice to the man one of my new year's resolutions........

LOL!! don't worry! After talking to him last night on another issue, I've decided to amend THAT resolution to one that I can control. I'm not going to let him push my buttons!!! Easier said than done, but I'm gonna at least try! I don't think I could ever forget all the reasons that he is an EX. Just talking to the man is reminder enough!

While I'm at it, here's a status report on all my 'homemade' gifts. Quilt - done, hats/scarves for my bonus girls - done, M's scrapbook - 90% done, only one more thing to work on between now and noon on Christmas Day. I'm going to throw a quick table runner together for CM's mom for Christmas. Sadly, not much baked, but I'm off for the rest of the week, so we may enjoy some homemade goodies AFTER Christmas. My apt is a wreck, but that will get taken care of at some point too! I've asked Santa for a laundry fairy, but don't have high hopes on that one. Think I'm gonna draft DD into helping with some of the wrapping tonight after her BB game! probably not much hope on that one either, but can't help dreaming!!

Have a Merry Christmas Moon!!!
