So.. snow this morning and COLD!!! The thermometer on the car said it was 8. Driving the D's to school was a little edgy, but we got there OK.

W looked like hell. I was dressed up for a meeting.. Khaki's, dress shirt, tie, suit coat... looking good. She said "you look good" I played it off and she repeated the compliment. I said "Thanks".

She evidently has strep throat (D5 had it and got a shot last week for it.)and isn't feeling good.

I told her I had to go downtown for a meeting and I couldn't stay long.. this is always an issue because she doesn't respect my time. She told me to be careful several times.. unusual for her.

Went to leave and again she needed more of my time.. I told her I needed to go.. it was about schedules. I told her we'd talk later.

Interesting note... when I dropped D5 off, I noticed that OM's kids name was missing from D5's cubby. They shared a cubby due to names being close. I asked W if OM's kids were still there and she said no.. evidently his ex W pulled them from the school and they are now attending school where her and her new husband live.

I thought there was something going on... his time with his kids has been limited. I'm a little pissed as I had asked MIL if he still had his kids.. she said she didn't know. I now know that's BS, because that's something W wouldn't keep from MIL.

Wonder how this will play into the scenario. I played the info off.. didn't show emotion either way. Just said "Oh.. OK." W had a little bit of a smile like she was waiting for me to react. It went away when I didn't.

Day 2 starts with a little drama!!
