Hey Phoenix - It's just the wives going - my neighbor will be home - but we won't give him the time of day.
Believe me - all the ideas are already in my head, so don't worry. That was my night of staring at the ceiling last night and then praying that she has enough of her real self still inside her to not do anything stupid. I do know that my W is somewhat repulsed by the neighbor's W. She keeps hinting to me that she doesn't want to go.
The kids know that since my W is not going to be home there is no way they have to worry about spending time with them. My neighbor has asked if we can hang out that weekend - I pretty much brushed him off.
My only hope is that my W does her usual thing when she travels. She gets homesick right away. I'm hoping that happens and she misses us. She is already complaining about the 3 hour ride and the possibility of hitting traffic.
