Can't really remember the last time I posted a blog, 'spose I could go and look, but why bother? It's been a really good last couple of days. During Thanksgiving break, Ryan was able to come home for a visit. He hasn't been here since the end of August, and though we talk often, it is not the same thing. While he was here, he did manage to drive me just a little crazy with some of the things he did. He really wouldn't be Ryan if he didn't.
Now, don't get me wrong...I love having a cell phone. Ryan had his either plastered to the side of his head or texting furiously all the other parts of the day. WTF?!!??! His response: "I can't help it if I'm popular". I had to threaten him with bodily harm, and if you have seen him lately, he towers over me and could quite easily throw me over his shoulder and toss me wherever. I swear I could hear that thing going off in my friggin' sleep. On our way to Walmart, I even threatened to chuck the mother out the window. All I got for my statement was the stink eye.
I was mistaken in thinking that since he now has his own apartment, he may have a new-found respect for how much work it takes to keep a place liveable. Obviously, I was wrong once again!!!! He came home and did his usual Ryan thing and left everything wherever it landed and couldn't be bothered to turn off any lights.....aaaahhhh!
Still, it was really great to have the boys here for dinner on Thanksgiving, and relived some of the times when they were small (a right as a mother), amid many eyerolls and lots of laughs.
I look forward to doing it all over again next month.
