Here's my dilemma.
Let's call it the douchebag dilemma.
I'm glad Wendy doesn't read the blog and I don't want the rest of you to lose your minds when I say what I'm about to say... K.
Wendy has asked 6 and I to consider letting her and the douchebag move into the little house.
The Dbag has a full time steady job now and has quit drinking.
Wendy has finished school and has found a job.
Now mind you as soon as I post this my phone is going to light up because 6 will be calling asking if I've lost my mind or if someone is making threats against the family.
Here's the way I see it though, there is so much that needs to be done here on the farm and 6 could really benefit from the help and the douche has promised Wendy he would be more than willing to help with whatever whenever.
So that could be a positive.
The only negative I can see is that I hate his guts.
So my question to you is, is my hating his guts my problem or his problem and do I owe him an opportunity to change the way I feel about him.
I don't know.
There's a really big part of me that wishes he would just meet a really nice girl that comes from piles of family money and he would move to the south of someplace else with her and then Wendy could cry her eyes out for a few days and then meet some other douchebag that I don't hate and they could live happily ever raising homing pigeons and competing in weekend fly ins for cash money and other pigeon related products.
In other news...
I love driving the big yellow bus!
I am still trying to figure out how to have enough time to take care of everything around here, feed and wash Wyatt, fix dinner, grocery shop, tend to the trailerpark people, do laundry and still find time to call my Mother everyday.
STILL no more lambs... WTF?
That ewe looks like she's going to pop, I don't know how much longer she can hold that little guy in there.
Todd is growing SO fast and Judy is without a doubt the cutest sheep on the farm. being half wooly and half hair she has a very different look about her and I think if we entered her in a cutest lamb in the world contest she would win for SURE!
K, I have to go now.
Peas.
DISCLAIMER: I do NOT have children, my husband is home every night and I don't cook on a regular basis.
ReplyDeleteCan Wyatt help with the animals? Maybe teach him to do his own laundry? Make simple meals; soup, hotdogs & beans, salads?
Here's my two cents as a wife, momma, and grown-up daughter and step-daughter:
ReplyDeleteWendy is grown, and of course you want to do whatever you can to help her. BUT, the only important question is how will having them around affect your CURRENT family situation?Wyatt and 6 (and you) are the priorities now that she has chosen to live on her own as a grown up. If it will make your lives better, do it. If it will harm you at all, don't do it.
PS I thought the little house was mine?? :)
ok, bus drivin buddy.. i's the similar situ - me hub is the hated one and it got worse after movin in w/parents.. barely does he get the rent paid and does nothing else around to help (claims asks though).. they put up w/him for me and when i'm able to leave that would be the best.. question is: can you put up w/douche for wendy... think about that long and hard... sometimes 2nd chances work; and hopin beyond belief that it would work if you say yep!
ReplyDeleteMuch easier to say NO from the get go, then to let him move in, make Wendy miserable, and then try to get him to leave. ( and PLEASE tell JDM that you name the sweetest little four legged creature in the world after me! )
ReplyDeleteMoms always do what they know is right...not what they WANT to do...which might be landing a low-placed kick. lol. At least you will feel like you gave it a fair shot, even if it doesnt work out.
