Friday is my D17's birthday. She will actually BE 17.
W tells me that we are going to 'hang out' friday and that on Saturday we're all going out to dinner because then her friend 'P' can come to town and go with us.
'P' is one of the 'you need to be happy' friends. The 'family friend' that the girls like and is always friendly to me, even though she's willing to support W when she yells 'divorce!'. Of course, in the past 10 years she has done nothing constructive AS A FRIEND OF THE 'FAMILY' to help keep us TOGETHER.
I don't like her being inserted into my family's affairs. W moves the birthday dinner to Saturday to accommodate her schedule? Without discussing it with me?
No. I told W that she and the girls could certainly go our for dinner on Saturday with 'P' but I wasn't going to go. I said we'll go our for dinner on D17's birthday FRIDAY.
So, what does she do? Invites her friend to come over later tonight and stay overnight because 'P' wants to 'spend time with the girls' while W is working tomorrow.
I overhear her say something to her on the phone like "We're going out tonight so Frank can have his dinner with them".
Ah, yes. My dinner. And then she and 'P' will have 'their' dinner Saturday.
Like I said, everything is just peachy! Well, except that I have to still figure out a way to keep us in this house, and fed, and all the other things that need to be done. And also rebuild Frank at the same time. With no help from her except that she pays some of the smaller bills sometimes.
Ok, I'm being angry. I need to calm down so I can 'smile and wave' when 'P' comes here later.
