Saturday

Talking to our boy I just found out that Nabal and the protege were drunk when they got home from 'church' as he saw them when they pulled up. The livingroom is scattered with beer bottles. Work is picking up, thank God! Nabal spent all day at his church picnic. Yay, I went through clothes, kindahate this time of year. One day hot, next cold. Nabal is trying to gain brownie points by throwing our boy a huge birthday bash. Our boy told him he doesn't want any party, Nabal's not listening. All these years Nabal never had time to spend at anything for the child's birthday and now he's trying to push a party down everyones throat. Well, he's trying to have the party tomorrrow and hasn't bought the first thing. This will probably go the same way our girl's quincenera went. He found the excuse telling her she wasn't Mexican enough... Great guy...NOT! He never had time for the kids when they were young. I once did a huge party in the back yard for our girl. I can't remember where he was. Not helping. I don't remember if he was even home. Probably working, which wouldn't have bothered me at the time. He is a hard worker and that I'll never begrudge him that. Easter tomorrow. He asked about party planning. I told him I'd help after church. He already told his folks he wontbe coming in tomorrow. Lets see how long they stay sober...
