No 2 x 4 from me. I will tell you what I told Karen. She is not your friend and even though you would like a civil relationship, she isn't there yet(for whatever reason). So don't call and ask her especially as it is going to set her off. Though I realize that a normal person wouldn't respond the way she did.
Maybe once a month you could get her school schedule. I know here we can go on line and look up the calender. I actually have the whole year so I know ahead of time when they are off. Then I just make the adjustments I need. I am sorry that this isn't easier and the person that you used to be "in this with" can't deal with interactions.
You are going to be fine. Deep breaths. I actually thought I would buy a dozen eggs, draw facial features and dots of hair and have at it for when I am mad at ex. Maybe you could find a similar outlet? lol
