Newbie (again)

So, XW got a nice kick in the gut from me this morning (and I think OM crapped his pants)

With today being the first day of school and I was uncertain about wether or not open house was tonight, I tried calling and texting her and the boys last night to firm up and wish them a great first day.

No replies. Oddly enough, I was at a 'friends' last night. I guess we might as well say a FWB? I've made it clear that the realtion is what it is, no more no less. Every time I stop by there, XW acts up. Curious to know how she knows I'm there?

So anyway. Since I didn't talk to them and was but 20 minutes away, I opted to just surprise them and 'intercept' them at school.

No sooner thatn I pulled up and got out of my car, her comes OM driving up the street, sees me and upon literally pushing the boys out the car door, takes off. How nice. First day of school and their mother can't even escort them? Kids seemed to have a 'rehearsed' explination that XW "dropped her phone in the toilet or tub", yeah ok, never got the same answer twice an dI can read S11 like a book and that is not the truth.

None the less, they were estatic that I was there. Made my day and theirs and I'm doing a little 'happy dance' now for 2 hours.

See NCB, if your reading this, it's the little things that show your love and affection to your kids, and assures them that although things are messed up, they still have both parents in their lives at all times.

Edit, I forgot to say that I would have love to have been a fly on the wall when OM reported back that I was there to XW. I'll bet she felt like crap.
