I feel like Paul Harvey... "And now... the rest of the story"

So she had responded: "I admit to my part. Your mess is the reason I left not OM. Fine if that's what you want you do it! Whatever makes you happy. Our kids make me happy!"

See.. she wants me to pursue the D. Not her.

me: "I don't want to fight. You gripe about the girls. I think you are confusing them so they act out. I could care less about you and OM. I worry about the girls. I don't appreciate the "one up" stuff. You decide to do different things with your money. That's your choice. The thing tomm is free. You want to be friends? Then be a friend ALL THE TIME not when it's convenient or when you want something. I see things quite differently now."

Now.. some of that is important because she blasted me for doing things she can't afford. Well.. instead of doing the smart thing and selling her horses, she's squeezing her money to pay for them. That's her choice.. not mine.

she: "I am not. They love me and you! We should be on the same page for them. Class is starting. Talk to you later. Always and forever friends. Gotta go!"

me: "What does that mean? How can I be on the same page when you don't even talk to me? You wanna talk give me a call. Otherwise I'll be sending more emails. I want to make sure things are written down for you."

That was it.. I expected her to call after class and she didn't.

I mean that much to her.. I'm a friend. BS. She wants me to be on the same page?? Clearly we are not.. she likes hanging with OM and letting kids have a sleepover and I'm not.

This morning she texts me to remind me she was borrowing a memory stick for her class on thursday.

I take D's to school and she acts like no big deal. I'm pissed and have attitude. She boldly asks what the attitude was about.

I told her.. I'm done with her games. I asked why she didn't call last night and she didn't answer. I told her again to call her lawyer and get things moving.

I'm tired of being lied to and about. I'm tired of her only wanting me around when it benefits her.

Maybe I'm being a little harsh, but after Friday and this past weekend, I've had my limit.

RHW.. I believe you asked what I had done.. I still haven't gotten this complete list, but basically she said she's been afraid of me for 3 years. I didn't treat her like an equal, I made her feel worthless.

All of this is hilarious, because it's her mother and her nasty ways that have caused this.. not me. I know I've had a hand in it, but it's only because I didn't like what she was doing. It was cause and effect. She also can't express her feelings very well and won't talk about things until it's too late. We had been to counseling a few times and she didn't like it because they always seemed to side with me (hmm wonder why?). We've had a few conversations since that if she would've said some of these things, it would've made a HUGE difference.

Communication.. biggest thing in an R!!
