Valentine's Day

Let me tell you about my window.  Usually the little man is the one who has epic meltdowns that may culminate in broken things.  But this one started with the little woman.  I'm not sure what is up other than she seems to think his way gets a lot of attention.  So about a month ago she threw something at the front window and the outside pane broke.  Lovely.  I've spent a couple of different days picking up glass and wondering how to get the rest out of the frame. 
Move to today.  It was a little thing and I can't even remember what, but they were both melting down a bit.  Nothing major.  But he wanted her to stop and she wanted something else.  So she threw a metal yard decoration at that broken window.  Scared us.  I went out to talk to her about it and to settle down a bit.  I dont' need the whole thing escalating.  When all of a sudden the window went bang.  Yup.  Both panes are now broken.  Oy. 
I left the glass intact and pulled the shade down.  Otherwise all our heat is just going to fly out that window.  Now to figure out how to get it fixed.  And will it happen again?  Normally I don't replace things that get broken.  That way whatever it is doesn't get broken again.  Happy Valentine's Day to me.
So the day started as it usually does.  I get my coffee and I go online to check email and see what is happening on facebook.  Cassie is gushing about eating chocolate covered strawberries and how her children got giant plushies.  Well two of her children got giant plushies and two got nothing.  What amazes me is when she goes on facebook and complains about her relationship with these two and how unfair it is.....and yet she does not go out of her way to foster a relationship.  I'm pretty sure there are cards at a dollar store and stamps don't cost much and yet it is too much effort.  My heart does another little break every time the littles are forgotten. 
I bought a couple little gifts for the littles.  He got a new hoody and some chocolate.  She got a new heart dress, some chokers and candy.  I stopped at the dollar store and got really cute Valentine's Day bags for them and they were happy.  They had great days at school.  Then Mike called to wish them a Happy Valentine's Day.  They had a good Valentine's Day regardless of how mine went.
