mrs,

I just left H a VM about the weekend.

" I am just getting back to you about your message yesterday.
I already told you that I will not be able to pick up d from your apt this weekend. I am really busy and the best i can do is meet you half way. It is a 45 min drive one way and it will take a good 1 1/2 hours out of my day. I'm just too busy. If you don't want to meet me half way then I guess you will be bringing her all the way home."

"You are the one that chose to live 45 min away. If you want to live closer to your kids so you don't have so much driving to do then move closer. It's your choice to live where you do."

"D does want to come home on Sat night, but if Sun morning is better for you then she will have to stay another night. Just let me know which day you will be meeting me and where. I think that XXXXX Mall is about 1/2 way."

How did that sound? He is seeing that I am stronger and not so easily manipulated anymore and he doesn't like it. I'm sure he is fuming right about now. He needs to learn that there are consequences to his decisions. He is such a baby and still expects me to cater to him.

Hugs,
K
