This week

What a week!! Mike has been working, not home very much. We started out so good. We babysat our little angel on Sunday. Had all the kids here and grilled hamburgers. It was fun, and sweet. Then Monday came, don't we LOVE Mondays (sarcasm)? Busy, at work, at home, with kids, you know how it all goes. We got rid of our home phone and as a courtesy, I let Mikes ex-wife know. Why, why, why? This woman takes a mole hill or maybe even a little tiny spider hole, and makes the Rockies out of it. I mean a total continental divide!!! We do not, absolutely do not, want this woman to have Mikes cell #. Why? Because, she is known to harrass him. I mean in the very first week of our marriage she called him and said she would pay for our divorce. She has, obviously, not loved the idea of us getting married. Mike NEVER would have divorced her, despite her having affairs and being, in general, a mean spirited person. She divorced him. But, he was her standby man, apparantly. She had her cake and was eating it too!!! I have never known ANYONE like her. When Mike was at my house visiting, before we got married, she kept calling and harrassing him. Mike and I decided a long time ago, that if she needed to contact him, she could call our home # or my cell. He usually doesn't even keep his cell on, except when he is away from home, so I can call him in case of emergency, or so WE can talk to each other. His cell phone is not to make him accessible to her or anyone else. She got so pissed that we wouldn't give HER his #. Why? If she calls my cell, or Jenna calls my cell, I will have Mike call them back or I will pass on the mesage. She doesn't think she should have to talk to me. I think, she thinks, she should have total access to him, like THEY are still married. What a complete nut.

I have been nice to her children, and to her. I have been accommodating, really MORE than accommodating. I have tried to be her friend. Mike does not want ANYTHING to do with her. He is tired of her anger, and her nastiness. I don't blame him and I think we are not asking anything unreasonable. What happened between her and Mike is between them. What happens now is between Mike and I. She is NOT his wife, she does NOT have the right to ANYTHING. I do exist, and I am not going away. I am his good wife.

OK done now.

In writing this, I have realized, I have allowed this to hit me and bug me far too long. Never mind. This week has been GREAT Mike and I have had a chance to hang out, and enjoy our family.... We have worked together to further our family, and solidify our marriage. What is wrong with me? Well...

We became grandparents



Well, on Thursday the 30th, we became grandparents. Amazing, how God works things like that out. We, Mike & I get to be grandparents together, how fun will that be? Hopefully a lot of fun. She is a beautiful wonderful baby. I am excited to be able to be a part of her growing up. Lord help me to be a good example of Your Love in her life.
