Fathers day 2014 done. Not the best. Tired from lacrosse and driving yesterday and doing it again today, i got an hour in with my dad at 8a and brought him starbucks and a canteloupe and card. H i wasnt going to see and the kids were asleep so i got a card and some training gels signed it "happy fathers day from A and the boys."

Was hard to find a card that wasnt overboard on the "youre a great dad" sentiment. I settled for Happy Fathers Day...and many mower. It felt accurate.

H texted me that he wanted to take s14 to a family party i hadnt known about until it was discussed by moms at the baby shower yesterday. I said "you can wake him; remember he needs about an hour to wake and shower." H sai ok have him ready by 12:30. I said i am in annapolis and h said ok. I also told him there was a card and something in the mail area for him. He never came.

When i got home at 5:30 s14 didnt know anything about any of it.

So thats our fathers day for him.

He texted me midday yo ask if s16 was playing much and how well. I said yes and great.

(I always think he's great im his mom lol)

Thats it for today. I did a minimum job but survived and have more to do, vacuum quick and guitar group, then wine and sleep.

Happy fathers day to all of you (truly) great dads, you know the difference.

That's my head smacking the keyboard.

My H just emailed our son about a rule he'd like to impose that friends can't drive son's car.

He signed it with his childhood nickname (along the lines of Joey if his name was Joe). Not "dad".

I have nothing to say about this, I just give it up to the universe to handle.

Have you watched the Harry Potter movies? In one of them this awful lady took over the school and continually made new rules and nailed them to a giant wall. The wall was covered before the kids revolted.

That's the picture that came to my head when I read your post. Maybe you'll get to collect a bunch and then use it as material for a book. "Useless Rules from Joey"

So funny! I thought that latest rule was fine, and agreed with it, but was mostly astonished that he's now going by his first name in private communications to S16, instead of "dad".

But yes, he is a control freak and likes to be a ball-buster, both.

Always, or just postbomb? Funny how your h can see himself a certain way that you dont share.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do.
I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering.
