We were supposed to go to a movie today as a family. The S nixed the idea after the W offered to buy them a toy instead.
so she leaves to go to her mom's about 1:30pm and didn't come home until 7pm. Our S reminds her that she's supposed to take them to the store. She tried getting out of it; but our S wore her down. so she takes both kids out at 7:30 to go buy toys and a few food items.
Less than an hour they return empty-handed. My D has been crying and my S won't come in the house. The W tells me that her paycard she switched to will only allow her to pull $100.00 out every 36 hours. I ain't never heard of that; I think she probably spent all of her money. Anyway, the kids are disappointed.
She tries to say bye to them as she immediately is bolting the house for who knows where. They won't even look at her. W mumbles something about feeling like sh!t. Then complains that they are spoiled any way. I didn't disagree with that statement.
So she grabs her laptop and bolts the house in tears. I tried to tell her not to let it get to her. There will be times in which the kids get disappointed.
She did inform me that she wouldn't be back tonight; so I'll have to give the kids baths and put them in the bed. Then I'll start my usual day tomorrow. which means do it all.
The W told me today that she is still planning on moving in with her g. parents to help nurse her g.mother. She said that her G.father didn't mind if the kids stayed there. but I told her that the kids need to be here on school nights. Not that they couldn't go over there during the afternoon/evening; but I wanted them back at the house for bed on nights before school. She agreed.
