I'll start off by admitting that I'm venting here a little but I'm pissed off tongiht.

It's 9:20 at night and I'm still at work. W calls me a few minutes ago and I anwser the phone to "oh, your still there" She then goes on to lecture me about spelling mistakes in S8s home work and I how have to spend more time working with him on it. She them makes an laughable comment that she has the same amount of time in the evenings as I do and she manages to get it done. I guess she forgets easily that I have to take 2 hours out of my day to drive the kids around on her weeks because she can't drive. I guess she forgets that while I'm driving the kids around she gets to get home early and have dinner ready so that she has time to spend doing these things.

I get these little lectures out of her about once every 2 weeks or so. Today I've gotten it twice. I don't know why she does it. Maybe she is tired, maybe she is trying to show off for OW to show her how tough she is, maybe she is just having a sh@tty evening. All I know is that she is going back to week old homework and calling me to bitch at me about it at 9:00 at night. Is she purposely looking for something to call and bitch about?

Tonight I wanted to get in to it with her but I chose to validate her and just say "yes you are right, I should spend more time working on the kids homework". However in validating her I feel like a wimp and that her and OW are just having a laugh about how easily W can get im my face and I don't do anything about it.
