Having some issues with W about when she will show up at the house in the morning, assured me she will be on time from now on. I hate calling her to find out where she is at. I don't want to rely on her for anything and I hate waiting for her.
She said she won't be late anymore, I said sure you will in a sarcastic tone. I didn't like how we parted today, so I made an excuse about forgetting something, and went back inside, I stopped in the kitchen and asked her if she watched the hockey game last night (small talk) she said I looked good in the suit and tie I picked out today, so I felt better about how we left each other this morning.
I'm getting calls from W telling what she wants to do during the day (why do I care as long as the kids are home when I get there)
She wants to show me what she did at the house when I get home, and all I want to do is get away from her as quick as possible,
Last night trying to gather up 4 kids going in 4 different directions, while W trying to tell me what she did during the day (besides pack some more stuff to take to her apartment).
Know what she wanted to show me, if you open up the spice drawer, she wrote the letter of each spice on top of the container, so if you are looking for pepper, you would look at the bottles with a "P" on top of them - wow - she was take aback by my lack of interest, I did say thats going to be very helpful as I gathered up S5 and was heading out the front door.
S5 had a bad tummy ache last night, he was crying, at dinner, and I was up and down with him all night, found out W let him have a box of cookies and he ate the whole thing. W said today she cannot keep a constant eye on him (which is true I know) but you should know where the kids are at and some idea of what they are doing.
I don't want to rely on W for anything and I don't want her around - as I have always said, I'm not the typical DB'er, I know W is in fantasy land and will be all summer. Fantasy land end when kids go back to school, and she has to get a fulltime job. Then I will get my wish, I won't have to see her everyday, her and OM can go on with their lives and can go to HELL together. - calling it as I see it
We all have a long haul ahead of us good or bad it's the path we choose thats important.
