yesterday was the last of about 10 straight days I had with my kids. I was leaving to drop them off at W's and my kids were saying, 'no dad, we dont have to go yet, we have 5 more minutes'. I guess they are figuring this out too.
Before they left, I reviewed with them all the great things we did over 10 days. We had a great discussion about it. We were very busy and I think my kids had a great time with me. Makes me feel really good. I have developed a special bond with my kids thats for sure.
We had driven 4+ hrs home from our weekend away. Right after I dropped them off, W took them on another car ride for 3+ hours. Not sure if thats really fair to the kids. As you read back through my thread, you will notice my W was accusing me of 'competing' with the kids, and she was upset that I had not informed her that I took the kids out of town.
We'll....guess what. I knew she had left town with the kids, but she never let me know. So this morning I sent her a 'good morning' text before I had to leave on a work trip. 4 hrs later, I got a reply...." HI..the kids said they had a lot of fun with you (they must have also reviewed our time together), we will be back on Wed and leave again on Thu, have a good week".....hate to say it, but she doesnt play by her own needs or rules. I replied with a 'home from where, where else are you going and when do you get back'...all I got was a were in 'xxx' and were going to visit my friend this weekend.
she's so detached from me its not funny anymore. She just tries to make it as short a communication as possible and bat me away. It pisses me off to see her so selfish that she cannot even see it. To pound on me for info when I leave, then for her to leave and just treat me like I dont exist pisses me off bigtime. OK...that's my rant.
