Goals, guess I need a new set now. I think my ultimate goal for this period of time is to leave the door open and let him know he is welcome back without me leveling a bunch of guilt and "look what you put me through" type of guilt on him.
However, there is such a strong desire to let him know how dissapointed I am in him and I can think of many sarcastic statements to throw his way. So, I'll just post them here instead, as they would definetely be in contradicition to the above stated goal.
I'm not sure how to handle the next ten days. He is already very defensive when he talks to me. S6 went to the dr. He called for a report. Asked me if I needed him to take s4 tomorrow to help me out. I said, no, this is your time for yourself, you take this time. Well, he got defensive and said I care about the kids too. I can't win. He wants the kids to call him before bedtime tonight (this is very different, often he never even spoke to the kids when he is out of town), I'm thinking of just letting them talk to him and hang up without me talking. Let him go think. I printed off the articles from this board about the marriage map and the effects of divorce on children and put them in his suitcase. Don't know if it will have any effect. I don't plan on mentioning them, but I figure I have nothing to lose at this point.
