Thanks, although sometimes I wish I had a little "couch potato" time, I know GALing is good for me and the kids.

OK, the last couple days we've had bad weather, just bad thunderstorms and tornado warnings. H emails the kids 2 days ago re: how they should stay in the house until noon and not leave b/c of tornado warning. I felt like emailing back, oh shoot, I let them run around outside in the storm with scissors or something, but I restrained myself.

Then today, it's tornado warning again, I have to go before 5 to pick up the kids at the midway point, and seriously it was the worst weather I've ever driven in! But H had a date with OW of course, so you see how important the kids really are to him. It's easy to dash off an email and make himself feel like a great parent, but when it comes down to reality....

Good for me, though, b/c I really really think I've dropped the rope and kicked it away this time. I was kidding H like "what the heck was that?" b/c it was crazy to be driving in, and great weather for a dropoff and everything. I think he felt guilty b/c when I ran in the 7/11 store b/c D9 had to go, he moved my car??? I didn't say anything bout that. I really do have a different attitude as puppy was posting on h's thread, no longer LTRing, b/c I'm just ready to get it over with. So I'm acting friendlier, b/c I just am done.
