Adjustments

The Winters' have now been living with us for about two weeks. The transition was easier than I imagined it would be. You never know what will happen when you add 3 more kids and 2 more parents. So far Talena and I have been sharing the cooking/cleaning details. That's all good, who doesn't want help with their house work?! She was even nice enough to slay my laundry giant! (Thank you) I'm not sure what she thinks of living amongst my clutter, but for now it seems to be okay.

We have all sat down and made sure we were all doing okay, and talk about any issues. Seems fine for three out of the four, Darryl can never stay on topic! It's not that he has problems with the living arrangement. He has problems with other aspects of life that he has to talk about when we are talking about our families! I love him, but his thought patterns are SO different than mine!

Hmm...it's 8:13 the kids are in bed, Darryl's not home from work yet, the dishes are waiting to be loaded into the dishwasher...but here I sit at the computer enjoying the solitude if only for a few minutes; I hear his truck pulling in the drive. Time to feed "the man", maybe I can convince him to watch a movie after.
