I remember him blaming me for the reason why the kids didn't like the Rat. He said if I didn't have a problem with it, neither would they..
DUH!
When the guy sleeps with a chick under your nose and you spend months prior to the bomb suspecting it and think you are losing your mine, the kids are going to pick up on the fact that I wan't too thrilled that the Rat worked for back then H. I knew she was sniffing around. In fact, I used to BEG and PLEAD for my then H to fire her. For months!!! How awful is that? He said to me once that he didn't have any idea the Rat was into him until I started suspecting it..nice, huh?
Well, the news this Thanksgiviing are just like the rest. The Rat and XH are fighting and XH is moping around. I think she is upset that we went to family T together. The kids expressed that they wanted XH here for present opening on x-mas morning and XH and I agreed to it. (he gets them at 10 a.m. anyway, so he will show up around 8 instead so he can videotape them, be there when they open Santa gifts. It's really nice that the kids don't have to feel torn xmas morning over which parent they are with..
The Rat is going to Club Med with her kid today as my D told me. XH is pouting that they (he and the kids) are not going..
Boo Hoo Hoo..
I am sure he will blame it on me that I never signed off on the passports (previoius post)
I diffused my D talking about how she felt bad for dad (give me a break!) and said it was good the Rat was spending time alone with her kid (it's about time!)
Usually, she and my XH fight around the holidays, anyway. She has his number by now and she is kind of smart (choke choke) to get out of dodge for the week.
As for me, I am going a block away to my mom and dad's for Turkey Day. M sis will be there with her H and two kids, my cousin with her H and two kids, my cousin from Texas and my kids will be there around 5. NEw Guy will (hopefully) stop by for dessert as his mom is having Thanksgiving the same time but she lives in town, too..which is great!
Off to go hang with the kids. I let them stay home today as they only had a half day anyway. We need to chill and simply be..Life has been so crazy. They will be coming to work with me to class and new guy will meet them there with his D. They will go to New Guys while I teach..
