September was a screw up on my part. Labor Day every year MIL has a family reunion. My W hates it,complains about it, says she is not going to do it then her Mom guilts her into doing it. I stopped doing them about 3 years ago due to the way my MIL treated me during these things. I would bust my butt to get things ready for her reunion but it was never enough so I stopped doing them. They take place across the street from where we live at a pond my MIL owns. I can see the pond from my front yard. It's about 150 Yards from my front yard with a road between us. My W took my D over to the reunion which was Ok by me. I worked around our house.
While working around the house I saw on two separate occasions my D toddling around in the field at the pond between the public road and the pond with no one around her. This upset me. I thought it was unsafe. I called my W over let her know I was upset about D not being watched. W accused me of sitting up at the house spying on them, said I should have come over there to help watch D. Led to a big fight, I withdrew to keep it from getting worse, she moved downstairs. She came back upstairs after about a week and a half..
Moved back downstairs at the end of Dec. due to blow up over Xmas.
I KNOW THE SEPT BLOW UP WAS MY FAULT. I should have manned up, went over there and helped with my D..but pride can be a terrible thing. Due to my R with MIL I was determined not to attend that reunion..stupid and immature on my part. I apologized for it soon after...W tends to not let these things go, so we are where we are.
