Many (yes, Many) GSs but only 2 ESs itineraried for Sat., unbalanced man.

 

Mrs. T-B. has been lobbying hard to see Mini-B., our week man.

We shall take him to breakfast and then drop him with Mrs. T-B. during GS-ing, optimal man.

Mini-B. didn't tolerate last time's GS-ing very well, impatient wee man.

 

And where is Steveklar, huh man?

Saturday GS/ES report, see man:

 

Attended a bunch but skipped Many (2+1), after Mrs. T-B. called to say that Mini-B. (with her) was getting bored and wanted us to take him home, si man.

 

The take, see man:

 -- small voltmeter = $1, steal man

 -- 2 packs party plates, pack of coffee filters, nearly full bottle Betadine = free, Nirvana man

 -- Many (2+2+2) books for Mini-B. = $Many ($2+2+1), deal man

 -- Many (2+1) long-sleeved shirts + 1 sleep pants for Mini-B. = $Many ($2+1), steal man

Total = $Many ($2x2x2+1)

Mama & Papa-Dave were finally able to visit us last week.

 

Confirmed that mini-Dave is the most adorable baby boy in the world; independent observations, man. ( Mama-Dave clearly thinks three grandkids from five kids is insufficient ; asked if/when we're planning on another 🤣)

If she doesn't think that Many from Many is sufficient, explain to her that it's Many from Many, si man.

This workis all the time in Poland and will convince even the most dubious, si man.

Scintillating Monday repartee, yawn man.

 

Belated Sunday report, see man:

Did not leave the casa somehow, optimal Sunday man.

 

With misgivings, we let Mrs. T-B. take Mini-B. for breakfast with little amigo, ingest wee men.

We should have taken him to see Mama T-B., miffed senior she man.

 

On "heavy" laundry day, warshered/baked/folded Many (2+2) loads, amazing man.

First Many (2+1) were standard stuff, think we have the new system down to a science man.

Many'th (2+2th) load = afghan and a couple of throw-blankets, cold water man.

'Twas hardly like doing anything at all, and there's our Thread Laundress report man.

 

Trouble in evening, oh brother man.

Mrs. T-B. arrived to take Mini-B., her week man.

Mrs. T-B. helped herself to a candy from Mini-B.'s Halloween take, self-rationed by wee man.

Mini-B. asked what it was, and Mrs. T-B. told him, oh brother man.

It was the only one of its kind, and he'd been saving it specially, oh brother man.

Mini-B. went aysheep, not unjustified man.

Mrs. T-B. treated it casually, not out of character man.

We didn't have time to instruct/mollify Mini-B. before he left, oh brother man.

 

Then, on Monday, Mrs. T-B. told us what happened when they arrived at her crib, oh brother man.

Mini-B. threw another bag of candy at her, then threw water at her, upset wee man.

We can understand why he did this, overreaction though it was man.

Mini-B. had our same complaint that Mrs. T-B. always disrespected our stuff, perceptive wee man.

Now, Mrs. T-B. wants to punish Mini-B. by suspending YouTube or his tablet use for a month, egad man.

We think that this is severe, handle by explaining/instructing instead man.

We called him on Monday eve, daily call we to wee man.

He told us about skool, expressive wee man.

When we gently asked about The Incident, he completely clammed up, no response by wee man.

We finally had to hang up after telling him that he could tell Daddy anything, open ears we man.

Mrs. T-B. said, "He thinks that you're going to be mad," wonder who fed him that man.

Only our Many'rd week of this system and already strife, different parenting styles man.

Mini-B. is probably internalizing a lot of frustration, poor wee man.

We won't see him till Wednesday at earliest, our evening man.

We have more than half a mind to give Mrs. T-B. a piece of our mind, conclude we man.

Advice, huh man?

Advice, huh man?

 

Food ingestion rules vary by household. Since now there are two households, there are two sets of rules. 

 

However, Halloween Candy is sacrosanct, and now you have to pick up the pieces from that breakage. 

 

I sense she won't listen to your advice and input, so stop wasting time with it.  Yank the tablet usage is awesome, as he is using it there, unsupervised [as she is quite lazy on parenting, based on what you've written these last 3 months].

 

Be the Dad when he is there,  step up other times when there is some medical issue outside of your home

 

That's it, yo.  Otherwise? To attempt to manage his time and him, when he's not with you? She could get litigious and do nasty things. 

 

If you have time and money for a therapist, take him. 

 

I should write tonnes here about co-parenting, but since it's her, it would be a waste as she's not able to understand, much less do, that. Part of that failing is culture,  part is her personality.

 

Good Luck, and Godspeed!

Speaking of this thread, we are so glad that it is crawling to its macabre conclusion and that we -- yes, we -- get to name the next one, long past our proper turn man.

 

1. No

2. Not near 200, at all. Stop it, these constant rounding exercises, near page 150.  You do it on each thread.  Math is important and infallible, you treat it otherwise, here.

You should build a warehouse barn at yer hunting lands, park em all there till covid is done.  

 

So yeah, my son in NYC. All classes remote, he moved into an artist's colony building managed by an older madman.  Recent covid issues in the building, he jetted back home with his Mom.  Had a long visit last week.  Vetted some real estate rental that turned out to be a CL scam on Berkeley Place.  It was good to see him.

No dude. Stay local, no immigration paperwork.

 

Don't you dare, or I'll come find you and remove your paper roll dispenser in the garage.
