New abbreviation for everyone = WAM = Walk Away Mom
Journal Section Saturday morning, I was expecting to take D9 and D6D6 to softball in the morning, this would have killed off most of the morning, but because of the rain, we had nowhere to go, so we went to my moms house for the morning.
Told my mom what was going on, she doesn't understand how W could do this, she asked if W had someone else in the picture and I said yes she did.
When I was at my moms, Dorothy, my neighbor elderly lady with direct link to W's mom, called me crying, she saw moving van and was upset thought W was taking the kids away from me. I calmed her down and told her the kids would stay with me, at the house.
We kept busy all day and at 3:00 I called W to see I could come home, Brought kids home to a empty house, D9 knows what's going on, twins and S5 really don't, at least not yet. They all will get accustomed to the idea during this summer.
Sunday took kids to church, my mind wasn't on church, we all went to pool as a family (separate cars, W came up later) and had a good time with some friends, (they don't know yet) took kids home
Special Interest Section
Saturday morning, W wanted to know why I wouldn't let her take kids to school in Sept, I told her I don't want her over at the house everyday, she said I didn't need to see her, she could just pull up and pickup the kids, I told her no again, I do not want you over here everyday, I add one thing, "do not push me on this issue"
Saturday night, took kids to pool for a couple of hours, had dinner up there, came home and neighbor wanted to talk, so we sat down. She knows W cannot handle kids, she has been out with them. She said she would be there is I needed her. Said some things, that I would not have expected, W told her that I would be surprised of how much debit she is in, I know, remember I'm an ex-snooper. Told me how rude W has been to her and the other lady that's W's mom's friend. That W's mom knows something is up because whenever she sees the kids, I'm there and W isn't. Mothers day, I showed up at W's moms and W showed up later in separate car.
Told neighbor about W's OM
Saturday night, W had to work, works late, 2:00am, wanted to be at our house so when kids woke up she was there, so she climbed into bed with me.
Sunday, neighbor and W's mom's friend were together, I know what the hot topic was. W's mom should know by now that W moved out on me and the kids.
W allowed D9 to have friend over, she told everyone she was going shopping, and she never returned. I set up a movie night for the kids, I put out a big sleeping bag, and we got pillows and covers for all, I popped some popcorn, and kids had a great time.
W returns home Monday morning before kids wake up and puts on her PJ's
I'm going to be happy, helpful, forgiving, patient and loving. Not just to W and kids, but to everyone I know and meet. This is me, this is how I want to live my life, this may not be the best course of action to save a marriage, but its the best way to live my life
We all have a long haul ahead of us good or bad it's the path we choose thats important.
