On Friday she decided to do the taxes. Friday morning she asked if we should go back to the people who did the taxes last year, and then Friday night came home and did them online. When she was finished she showed me how it all worked out and then told me how it all was to be divided when it came in. So I was like "great, here we go..."
But then, afterwards she was joking around and generally in a good mood. So I don't know what to think. Last night was not very good. I was invited to an Oscar party at friend's house who I hadn't seen in a long while. Everything was fine with that, but when I was on my way out the door, my wife was trying to finish a paper for her class on Monday. The kids were going to her mom's, so I told her I could drop the kids off at her mother's on my way. She said that would be great and called her mom to tell her that I would drop the kids off. When she got off the phone she tells me "My mother is having a hard time with all this and she's very emotional about it today. So when you drop the kids off, if she's acting weird it's because of the situation and not anything with you."
This got me a bit upset. I'm not sure why, but I started to feel angry. I was mad for some reason, which is not an emotion that I generally feel with this whole thing. I've been anxious, frustrated, and sad, but this is the first time I got angry. Knowing it would do no good to stick around there, I took the kids to her mom's.
The only thing I can think is perhaps I am frustrated at the situation, and since I am so willing to work on it and she is still discussing D, I think it's starting to wear on me.
So I went to the party and came home. I couldn't sleep. I didn't sleep. I think I finally passed out somewhere around 5, but woke up again about 6:30. I took the garbage to the curb and took the dogs out.
She called in and put me on her insurance this morning. I asked her how much it cost and she told me what it cost for me and the kids. I told her I needed the total cost so I could get the money and she told me that she was going to pay for her own. I told her that I was going to get it for everyone and she reluctantly told me the total. It really is a ridiculous argument since at this point in time the money is all coming from the same place anyway, so who pays for what is really moot.
