So, it’s really been a while. Lots have happened since last, one of the main thing being me and the kids moved out to a new apartment. I’m not going to touch on it too much, but let’s leave it by mentioning that years of crumbs finally filled up a bucket that tipped over.
It’s a good home. The small boys share a bedroom and it seems to suit them pretty well. The oldest got the short straw and the smallest room, only able to fit a bed, the desk, a shelf and a chest-of-drawers, leaving a bit of spare floorspace. Fortunately, the balcony is connected to that room, so the decision to have the room was my kids own. As for myself, I’m sleeping in the corner of the new livingroom. I cleared out the kitchen from any furnitures, only stacking shelves in the kitchen for candy, food, pots and such. I dont want the kitchen to be any kind of room to hang out in, so to compensate for it, we now have a dining table in the living room – which in turn have a french balcony. There’s so many cool features in this apartment, it almost weighs up for the bad parts, like a loose doorhandle to the bathroom, the toiletseat being of the smaller version – and too close to the wall – and such things.
Their mom and I are still on relatively good terms. She still hangs out with the kids, she comes around every day, and we agreed upon her having the kids over every other weekend. Next “weekend” she’s going to have them isnt a weekend per se, as it should have been between 25th and 27th, but rather between the 24th and 26th. We agreed upon shifting the days one day earlier, because of Christmas. I typically dont celebrate it, but she does.
Kids just woke up from afternoon nap, so I’ll be back later.
