Thanks Mish, sorry was trying to caught up on your thread when.....
I'm going to kill that woman, simply kill her!!! (okay internet police relax, I'm only speaking figuratively)
And I don't know how, but I completely fogot this from Sunday. The only thing I said to XW that night, how could I forget. She started up on the 4th of July again, and said "what time are you picking them up from the parade?".
Since I was already twitchy by her physical appearance I hastly replied 'I told you, I am not going to the parade here, and neither are they, if that's what you want to do NEXT year when they are yours, all the power to you, but this year on my watch, it's new lives, new traditions. This of course sent her in battle mode and I jsut reminded her plainly that 'oh, by the way, the 3rd is Friday so technically I pick them up as normal any way, however since I have to get another job I would like to spend as much time with them as I can so maybe if you will let me I will pick them up Thursday night.
So, I hear nothing until 10 minutes ago, I'm sitting here at work and XW sicks S12 on me as to what time I'm picking him up, not only next week but this week. I have to painfully tell him I won't be picking him this week at all, and I'm uncertain about next week for now. This goes on for about 10 minutes and then I ask 'how come your calling from mom's phone, didn't she work?', "no, she's sick or something and S11 is playing video games, I'm so bored, but hopefuly OM will get off work early and we'll go to the pool." [insert infamous auto crash noise here]
I know she put him up to every second of that. Meh, whatever I have my own personal demons to being slaying tonight so that i can be ready to actively land a second job by the week's end.
