For the Guy with Kids and a WW4

[hopeful4her]

She is in a mood today.

Called when I got off work, today. I work a half day every other Sat. I had been planning on mayby going swimming again and maybe Indiana Jones afterwards. Talk to WW and I can hear something in her voice. That frustration sound. I ask if she has any plans. She she says she wants to go out today. In that frustrated voice. I say ok, I was going to take the girls swimming and then a movie. She tells me the girls have been lazy all day and don't want to do anything. I tell her I will get them going. I tell her I'm headed home. She pauses, "Ok". Sarcastic sounding.

Gonna be a good day.

Get home and she is putting puppies outside with D6. I can just FEEL the frustration in her. She is back and forth. Still in her night gown. Been cleaning. I'm looking to see how much cleaning she did, because that usually means that she is going out all day and maybe all night.

She tell me how S14 has not cleaned up his room. Turtle tank a mess and stinks. I ask her why she is cleaning it and she says she is cleaning it and getting rid of it. She had a talk with S14 earlier and it did not go well. She tells me about the convo and also starts telling me about nephew. "He better get his act together or he can find another place to live", she says. I tell her that they are selfish. "They ARE ALL selfish!", she says. I'm again thinking to myself, " Are you listening to yourself?" She is starting to do laundry, and I'm trying to make myself something to eat. She's here and there. Starting to cry. I go catch her in the bedroom and tell her, "Just go do want you wanted to do. Stop doing this stuff and get ready to go." I tell her firmly but not yelling.

D11 brings me WW's cell phone. She left in her room. I take a quick glance. Missed calls and texts. A missed text from OM. "What you doing?" Oh, brother. I take her the phone and give a shrug. D11 has her phone again later, and she gets another text. As D11 is walking to give her the phone, I see it is a text from OM. I hear her open and close it. She is getting ready to go. First she is wearing something nice and then she changes to a tshirt and shorts. She gets a call and I hear her talking about her going to pay some bills and wanting to go see a movie but no one wanted to do what she wanted.

I go around whistling the tune that her phone makes for recieved texts. I get D's ready. D's are asking her where she is going. She says to pay bills and then out. By herself. As I am getting ready, she keeps looking at me. I am upbeat. Whistling. Same tune.

She is angrily trying to tell me her plans. She wanted to make plans and no one wanted to do it with her. No one EVER wants to do what she wants. Then everyone is calling her to do something. "The hell with it," she says. "I'm doing something by myself. If my sister wants to go see a movie with me, then fine. I want to see 'Sex in the City' and she can meet me later. I'll have my phone if you want to get ahold of me." She tells me she is going to this store and that store and the other store that she has been dying to go to recently. That home decorating store. And then maybe a movie, too. She doesn't know what time, but she'll figure it out.

I'm like, ok. Your telling me all this why, again?

I sure hope OM is pissing her off and bugging her. I know everyone else is.

Can't be me. Or can it?

I just got here.
