The boys’ biological Aunt “A” is visiting us at the moment – she arrived yesterday and will be here until Sunday – and I am doing my best to stay out of the way while she and the boys hang out and play together and watch movies and chat.
This basically means that I’m sitting in my office hitting “refresh” on my domain transfer status page.
Not that I’m feeling twitchy or anything.
I pop out of the room to feed the dogs or make some food or do random “mom” thing like remind everyone to brush their teeth. Well, I don’t ask Aunt “A” to brush her teeth – I figure she’s got that habit down by this point.
She’s here to visit the boys, not me, so I refuse to get in the way. I’m also not letting her help with cooking, clean-up or any other tasks because, hello? She’s only here ’til Sunday.
The lovely thing is that the boys are happy – I hear a lot of laughter.

You know, you could write a script to do that for you. It could play a noise when the condition you’re waiting for occurs.
