APPARENTLY,Fall is the season for flies. There are flies EVERYWHERE, every place I go, TONS OF THEM. My house has flies, my class has flies, inside, outside, everywhere. Doesn’t matter. Just tons. AND TONS. of flies.
Ross lost his job. With apparently no explanation. They hired another new guy (he’s only been there …3 weeks? 4?) and they had him stay home today so they could train this new person. Then, this evening when he went in to pick up his paycheck, they told him there wasn’t any room for him on the schedule, but that if something “opened up,” they’d call him. No one would give him another explanation, despite the fact that they hired him like 3 weeks ago, so why did they hire someone else?! Wtf. Who knows. It seemed like he was doing pretty well and they liked him.. but he is really annoying, so who knows.
I am DYING for him to move out. I really want the space to myself, and I want to come up with a routine for me and the kids without him messing things up. I want to be able to set up firm consequences with Milo, and not have to worry about Ross undermining the things I’m trying to accomplish, or his anxiety having an adverse effect on either (or both) of the kids. I also have plans for both kids to start doing chores every day, but Ross complains about the quality of their work and loses his shit.
I just like it better when he’s not here. He’s so negative and miserable to be around.
I really think he needs to spend some time weighing the benefits of moving to Missoula, where his brother lives. He wants to stay here to be close to Milo, but once he moves out, he’s not going to see Milo every day anymore, anyways. And he can’t find a job, he doesn’t have any transportation, and he has no way to move out. He needs some additional support, NOT from me. His brother would be a great roomie and support system. Plus, his mom lives nearby.. I think she’s a horrible person, myself, but he seems to like her some of the time… plus she’s remarrying (for… the 5th time?) some rich guy, so I’m sure she’d be happy to give some of his money to her worthless eldest son.
Can you tell I’m a little bit bitter?
Anyways. I think he should move, and he doesn’t want to because he wants to be near Milo, but Milo does better when he’s not around, and like I said, once Ross moves out, he wont be seeing Milo every day anyways, mostly on weekends. He and/or Jesse could still come down and visit and see Milo whenever he wants. Ugh.
Anywho.
We are going to my parent’s place for the week of Thanksgiving, Wed-Sunday. I don’t know if Ross is going to come with us, or not. I still have not told my parents that Ross and I broke up. I also am not sure if I can really put up with my parents for that long. Pray for me.
I’m rambling now, just because If eel like complaining.
Milo and I are going to AJ’s on Saturday for a pumpkin carving party. She does it every year, I guess. I’m excited to see her house, she’s told me about it and I bet it’s adorable. I hope Milo will be adorable and entertaining. She said to bring kids. I don’t think Kasin will want to go, but he’s not as adorable as Milo anyways ;)
Speaking of Kasin, he is seriously driving me insane… he is crying over EVERYTHING. His teacher is reading Some Call it Courage aloud, and he cries EVERY SINGLE DAY while she reads it. I mean, seriously? He’s always been “sensitive,” but it’s getting out of control. He freaks out about bees, he cries and runs around like a psycho whenever he sees one, he can’t watch movies like Frankenweinie or even Nightmare Before Christmas, he has never watched any of the Marvel or DC movies all the way through (like spiderman or xmen or anything like that) because they’re too scary, he is afraid of basically ALL BOOKS designed for his age, because they have sci-fi or action that scares him. His teacher and the librarian keep recommending books for him, and he won’t read any of them because they’re “too scary.” I’m not sure what to do. This is beginning to sound more and more like an anxiety disorder. Anyone have any pro-tips on that mess? Oiy.
