Did I say Taxi Driver?? I think I meant 'Courier'!!!

Wow!! I haven't seemed to be able to sit still!!

Had NIc and her girlfriend her Friday night plus the rest of mine..13 yr old arranges to go to his best friends house ( for the whole weekend!!)..So off we go there..arrange to pick them all up Sunday for the Taekwondo Grading.Sat morning..up at 5.30pm to take the big girls to Station to get the express train to Sydney..then take 16 yr old son to stn for 8am train..( he was going shopping with his friends..yes..he actually likes shopping!!)..think about going back to bed but see a huge mound of clothes in the bathroom and the weather was looking bad..so start the washing..then its off to the pool to get 9yr old back into swimming lessons..( that went well..didn't rain on us..could have had Sat mornings for lessons but I know EX wouldn't take her so had to try and get a week day..Son gets home in avo..take him to work and pick up again at 11pm!!
Sunday..his work ring at 7am..nobody experienced turned up for work..they are desparate!! He agrees to go back in at 8 am. Take 9 yr old and 13 yrold old with friend and mum to Taekwondo grading..that goes for hours ( and I mean hours)...They all did really well though and we get out of there around 2.30pm. Just get home and 16 old rings..He has finished early as he started early..so back I go for him..Even though Nic, kept texting saying she was on way home and wasn't..and didn't leave Sydney until 8pm ( driving with friends instead of train) and was annoying me..( as she would text to say she was leaving..I would allow 3 hrs..and hear nothing..text back ..she would reply OH we havn't left yet..) at least she got to the door ( late) without me having to drive anywhere!!
Monday I end up driving 16 yr old to school as he had work experience at our primary school last week and needed to pick up his papers for his teacher. On way home I stopped at grocery store and EX found me..I didn't know 16 yr old had NOT told him he was signing out of school early so he could work between now and returning to school next year.. Well that went down like a tonne of bricks..Who signed him out?? I have legal custody..blah ..blah..( all inthe supermarket mind you) then I told him he didn't like the friends he was hanging around and this way he would be working ..so that calmed him down..then he started about How I still have feelings for him..and Honestly I was nearly sick..I am so past telling him to F- off as he never listens anyway..so I just ignored him. I had to laugh..what else could I do??( I am not allowed to hit him!!) He so believes whatever he wants to no matter what the reality is..
So I am off to wake Nic up ..she has a driving lesson ..and 16 old up..as he is off to work for the day!!

Good to see you on blogspot! I have given up even trying to get into the pond. It kept posting the same post about 10 times over. So annoying!
