Hope and heartache

[ClingingToHope]

I really wish we'd change where the girls get dropped off after school. Since I'm the one meeting them off the bus, I want them to go to my apartment. But W wants them to come to the house and I won't fight her on it this year.

But that means I'm over there for an hour every day and it's hard not to notice things.

Today, she left loan papers out near the computer. So I'm logging D7 onto a game and I take a look. Perhaps it's wrong, but I'm still on the hook for this stuff. Looks like she wants to get out of a joint loan we took out together back in February.

Unfortunately for her, they require my signature. No way am I taking on that loan by myself. I'm guessing she knows this because she signed it on Oct. 3 and never asked me about it. I've been giving her $50 a month to cover my half of it.

Second, more positive, thing. I wrote her a series of letters back in August and September before I totally took LRT to heart. I wasn't sure she even read them, but they were tucked in a little bag to the right of the computer.

Of course, as long as she's pining after the dream ex-boyfriend I'm not sure if any of this matters.

D10 had a tough day. By skipping the dress rehearsal yesterday, for reasons we still really can't figure out, she lost her individual speaking parts. So she's upset.

D7 had a good day.

I'm picking both up in 90 minutes for the night.
