The Lake

We are currently on vacation.  All 6 of us, plus Kelley's parents and her sister and her nephew.  It is great...  sitting by the lake, remembering when we were here last year and how I realized on that trip that I was really and truly in love with these people... I remember laying in that bed with Kelley, kissing her, feeling her skin against mine.  I remember sitting at the bonfire and getting butterflies when J looked at me.  I remember feeling happy when Cheesemeister and Kelley were laying on the dock, under the shooting stars because I knew that they made each other happy.  I hope to be here with them year after year for the rest of our lives.  I hope to have this, this love and this family forever...  *happy sigh*

Another week goes by...

The last week was pretty uneventful.  J & Cheesemeister drove for swap this week since Kelley was traveling.  It was kind of nice to just stay home.  BB woke up twice that night, once with a nightmare and another time the thunder woke her and scared her.  The next morning my dad called while J was eating breakfast across the table and BB talked to him and J & were looking at each other waiting for her to say something to my dad about him being there or him being my boyfriend or something.  Luckily she didn't, but she did inform Cheesemeister that J is my boyfriend and he is my husband when he got home. Ahhh, kids...they're lucky they're cute.

This weekend Cheesemeister's family had a party on Saturday and then we went over to Kelley & J's afterward.  We almost all fell asleep on the couch (except J) and Kelley made a big breakfast Sunday morning and we ended up splitting up and going to see "Inception" which we all loved.  The girls got along really well while J & I were home and Kelley & Cheesemeister were at the movies.  Then I whipped up some pasta primevara with whole wheat pasta and organic vegetables (Kelley & J belong to an organic vegetable group where they get a large bag every week).  It wasn't great, but everyone ate it and said it was...it's good to be loved.  ;-)

The main topic among our households is the vacation we're going on next week.  We're all heading north to the lake that Kelley's family has gone to for years for the whole week!  YAY!  We all really need it and I feel like I haven't seen Kelley in forever, so I'm looking forward to laying on the beach with her.  

Just another CRAZY week in the life of us CRAZY poly people....  or not.  LOLz

Oh, and J keeps saying he's going to blog on here.... but he hasn't.....  Ahem.  ;-)

The 4th to present

Kelley, J & M came over last Friday night so we could go hang out with my family at my sister's on the Saturday before the 4th of July.  Everything was fine, we hung out, cooked and went to bed, sleeping with spouses since Thurs was swap night.  Saturday we got up, I made a big breakfast and Cheesemeister spilled a glass of milk all over Kelley's work laptop computer.  Not awesome.  She was really great about it and was not upset with him, though I think he wanted to die.  So Cheesemeister and J spent most of the morning taking it apart and cleaning it.  Luckily it DID start later when we got home...I was convinced it would never work again and we'd be dropping $2000 on a new laptop for her...WHEW!  The "A" key doesn't work, but otherwise it's fine, so we ordered her a new keyboard to put into it.  

Anyway, we're up there and after a couple hours I feel like Kelley and J are not having a good time.  There's some tension with the kids (my child, my niece and M).  So Kelley & J ended up leaving pretty quickly after dinner and I'm feeling like crap because I was really looking forward to the day and wanting my parents and family to get to know them better since I'd like to eventually share the details of our true realtionship with them ...  My parents were fine, my dad played with M and my mom I think was fine (she's been known to be a bit snobby).  My one sister (C) who doesn't know about it felt weird about them being there I think, since she felt like it was a "family only" type event.  My niece and BB were being bratty to M and that upset Cheesemeister and me....we ended up talking to BB about it, and I mentioned it to my sister and she spoke with my niece.  It just ended up that Kelley & J didn't have a good time, and that really made me sad.... So, the whole "coming out" thing strikes again.... would it have been WORSE had C known, or better?  I don't know....


This past weekend we were Sans-kids.  We stayed home for a spouse night Friday night and then Cheesemeister and I went over to Kelley & J's Saturday.  J ended up getting a call for work and worked all day (poor J) :-(  So Kelley, Cheesemeister and I all watched True Blood all day long, which was nice.  We went out for dinner and brought something back for J.

So, a "wild and crazy" kids-free weekend was a fail, but I was just as happy relaxing and sitting on my butt all day.  Sunday morning Kelley made a huge breakfast then went to the farmer's market and bought some tasty desserts, which we all shared (cause you know how we like to share).  Bwahahaha.  I ended up getting a text from S (my sister who was watching BB) asking us to be home by 2pm, so we had to leave there by 1pm.  Much much much too short of a visit.  :-( 

It's hard to say goodbye to them when we have to leave....  like, super hard.  So, I sit and fantasize about our commune..... one day.

I'm in ur kitchen..usin ur wireless interwebz...

Right now I am watching Amy look for a snack....they just went to the grocery store and are still sans food. It happens to everyone no?  What is she wearing you ask?  Gray sweatpanty capris...and the "My GF Wu is Strong" tank that we made last fourth of July. She's so sentimental.

Meanwhile...  J has arrived with my taco bell...Cheesemeister is doing some craft project. And I am about to eat.

Let's face it folks...the night is young :-)
