LUCK OF THE IRISH?
I think I missed the boat on that one! Only being 1/4 Irish, what do I expect. I planned on making my traditional corn beef and cabbage boiled dinner for everyone tonight. Not gonna happen. Zoe’s school is having a fund raiser at a local pizza joint tonight. My Mother told the kids that “We” could go, without saying anything to me first. The look on Zoe’s face when I told her what I had planned on making made me cave. She tried to hide her disappointment and be all cheery about it. But I know that look very well. It’s one I use a lot with my Mother.
So I told my Mother that she could take the kids if she wanted. Angus and I will have dinner together at home. He has to work a little late tonight so he wouldn’t make it home in time to go. Angus thought that maybe we could go and check out a new Martini and Piano bar that opened not to long ago in town. We will see how late he gets home I guess. It’s a school night for the kids, and I hate not being here to put them to bed. And more than likely my Mom will just drop the kids off and go over to her boyfriends for the night. I swear I will see more of her when I move out of her house and into my own. The woman just hates to stay home lol.
I am just in such a funk. I don’t feel like doing or going any place. I even used last Saturdays snow storm to bail out of going to my nephews birthday party/cookout. The roads were clear enough to go a little late. But I was just not up to seeing everyone that was going to be there. A lot of them are people I haven’t seen since I left and moved to California. A lot of them were friends and co-workers of the EX’s. I know there would have been a lot of sympathetic,” I just can’t believe he would do this” and sympathetic looks all night. I am just not feeling social these days, at all.
Hopefully angus will be satisfied with seafood scampi and homemade martini’s. Hey, I could even turn Sophia’s keyboard on auto if she is not home to show us what she has learned so far from her Sunday afternoon lessons.
