My expectations or non-expectations --- hmmmm. It still depends on the day I guess. :-)

We were talking about $ matters and she made a reference to "if things work out" This is where I get into trouble regarding expectations - because the next sentence involved daycare plans if/when she gets a job. It seems all planned out long-term. But then again it really does need to be planned out in case...

...and so it goes in my (and many other's here) mind!

I was/am really disappointed that she cancelled the weekend here with her and the kids. I had thought she might when we made the plans, but it still hurts. I so wanted to lay a holidy guilt trip on her but managed not to. IN my head she cancelled because of pressure from OM -- maybe true or not -- but it helps me to think that the shine is or soon will be wearing off.
