well, no mom of the year award tonight. So I ended up taking the kids trick or treating by myself. Here's what happened. The W calls at 6 to tell me she's on the way. She'll be home at 6.30 to do D makeup for Cinderella costume. At 6:15 she calls and says that traffic was bad, accident or something. True, I heard it on the radio. By 6:25 my D said "Daddy let's just go without Mommy." I said "No, mommy wants to come too."
6:45 Mommy pulls in driveway and stops for about 2 min. Must have gotten a text/call. Finally, pulls up to the house and gets out. She tells D to come on and get makeup on; D says NO I want to go. W then tells kids that daddy can take you; I'm late getting ready for a party. She asks is that alright with you tom? I said that you could've called 30 mins ago; the kids already wanted to leave. By the time that we get there, the kids would only have 45 mins of trick or treat time. She said "Sorry." don't apologize to me. Apologize to the kids. So then I ask if her dad is expecting us. She says yes. If it had been no, we'd went to a closer 'hood. See we live in the woods.
So we get to FIL house and do some trick or treating. Then we all ate pizza. Shocking turn of the evening was when FIL W asked me how I was doing. Said that they wouldn't interfere; but wanted me to know that they were there for me in any way. FIL W stated that she's known W was off in the head since age 10 and that she thinks it's getting way worse. FIL told me that I will far better off when I'm out of the M and away from W. WOW!!! He said that his D was crazy. I didn't disagree. FIL W said that she knew that I was trying to keep it together for the kids and that she was pissed at W for what she's doing to the kids. W even told her tonight that she wasn't coming because she was looking for her fishnet stockings for the Halloween party tonight. FIL W asked what are going as, a hooker? I thought to myself, if you only knew.
Anyway, my mom came into town to make sure that kids get to soccer tournament games tomorrow as I head to the 'Nati for drill. So I'm not worried about the kids. W is .....who knows? don't care!
If I don't post to y'all this weekend; I'll see you Monday.
