Yep.. that's the part she doesn't quite get. The ONLY reason she went back to work was for her sanity. It was basically a deal where her job paid for daycare. Dumb move really, but she had to get out of the house. Education wise, it was great for the girls.
I'd have to check into that.. I'm not sure if they do.
To be honest... I'm half expecting for her to go work where OM works. I can just see her doing that. I think her options are limited given what she's trying to do school wise.
So I'm fit to be tied right now. I had to take the D's to the Dermatologist today. D5 is in for round 2 of the Molluscum treatment. D3 is in for her first. For those who don't remember or know, Molluscum is a contagious viral infection that my D's got from taking baths with OM's kids. Another one of my W's mother of the year moments.
Well.. D5 has these around her underarms. The medicine basically makes them blister up and pop. About 2 hours after the treatment, she's screaming bloody murder. The one's under her arms are burning. I've given her tylenol backed with motrin. She's been screaming all night. Finally got her to sleep and she woke up screaming again. I got her back to sleep.. hopefully she'll stay asleep for a while.
I want to call W and threaten her.. threaten to take the kids away.. I want to threaten OM.. How someone can hurt somebody so innocent and small enrages me!!
I decided to text W. "FYI.. D5 is having a horrible night. She screams every time her arms move. She probably won't be a happy camper tomorrow."
When W called earlier to talk to D's, I explained the situation.
W's lack of response/lack of call to check just confirms what a loser she is.
Sorry folks... can't stand to see my D's crying and not be able to do anything about it.
I am so sorry they both have it now, and your oldest D was in so much pain. That treatment sounds horrible. I am just so angry at your W, her adulterous behavior caused physical (and emotional) pain for your D's.
I hope she sleeps. I know you are drained. HUGS jar, you are their rock, their daddy, you did well tonight.
Thanks lwb. You locked btw.. wanted to comment on your sitch. Careful sailing!!
The non-response means she is at OM's. Why have a cell phone when the only person you are interested in is with you. She leaves her cell in the car when she is there.
Now.. I'm sure first thing in the AM I will get a text or call. I'm not sure how to react right now. There is also the possibility she will be there. I actually hope she is so D5 will have some comfort in the AM.
I really want to look her in the eye and tell her how much she disgusts me. It will be impossible to "act as if" tomorrow.
I did mess up a bit. After several hours of D5 screaming and D3 clamoring for attention, I snapped. I told D5 that she can thank her mother for this... if she ever wants you to take a bath with anyone else tell her daddy said no.
I regret that because D5 has made several comments while in pain. I'm sure that will come back to bite me, but at this point.. I don't care.
You didn't mess up. You were mad, and you'll still be mad tomorrow. Your W was horribly reckless with your D's health, and she should know you are angry about it.
Oh about the cell phone, goodness forbid YOU don't answer YOUR phone, but its ok when they don't answer theirs...phooey!
So.. coming up on 11 PM. D5 has been up several times. Very.. Very.. Very sad. I can't do anything for her and she has this scared crazed look in her eyes because she is in pain. I'm able to calm her down and rub her head until she goes back to sleep.
Still no response from W.
Next time she wakes up, another dose of Tylenol and she'll move into bed with me.
