E's sister had her baby yesterday and we had the task of caring for her three year old overnight. We did our best to corrupt him by watching Thomas the train followed by Wild Thornberry's and then Jimmy Neutron. And then, of course, repeatedly watching all three movies as much as possible during the past 24 hours. Thomas the train won at about 6 viewings.
While watching movies last night, I made him some mac and cheese and let him eat in front of the tv, and then of course we just slugged around today eating nothing but graham crackers.
Baby Mickey made his appearance last night at 11:30, weighing in at 8lbs 12 ozs and he is, of course, just darling.
On a sour note, the asshole neighbors have some asshole house sitters who at 1:30 am after E went over to ask them to quiet down, called her a shrew and after she left were mocking her and her request and suggesting we just stay over here and lick twat.
I am really struggling with how to keep an equanimous mind and deal with cultivating compassion toward those fuckers.

That is absolutely unacceptable the way those people talked to you and E. I am sorry to hear that. I truly am. Especially since you seem to be dealing with other prejudices from another individual. Just keep your head high.
Sometimes we forget about the hatred a lot of people have toward us. Luckily, they are just 'house sitting' and should be leaving soon, right?
