He came and got his stuff today. We weren't here, so that was good. He didn't take very much, so I texted him and asked when he planned to get the rest. At this point, I want to be done with this, and I don't think I should have to store all of his stuff for him.
While we were gone, he texted me and told me not to take the kids in through the garage. I replied, why? and he said he had taken his stuff out. I said...so? do you think we'll never go in the garage? His response was "whatever".
I am annoyed that he took some of my good cookware, though. lol

I know it was an LOL line, but if you're at all serious, ask for it back. Shouldn't you/have you agreed on how to divide the mundane stuff equitably? Just (over?) thinking.

Well we should have, but we didn't. He told me he was taking certain things, and then once he got here, he took a whole lot of other stuff. I know it's just stuff, but it's annoying.
I discovered he took my bathroom scale this morning. Ugh. He knows I use ti 2x a day. I texted him and told him I want that back.
Sorry you are going through this. He is being childish by taking things he knows you use and then by blocking the garage off. Just be firm with him, at this point what would it hurt? Tell him he has until X day to get the stuff out of your way or you will put it outside and tell him you want xyz back or he can give you the money to go buy a new one.

Thanks, PiGA. I agree, he is being childish. I probably am too a bit, but that scale has all my data stored in it, and he could just go buy another scale if he wants one.
I'm starting to hate this whole process. I find myself wishing I never met him. How sad is that?
sad girl, i have had those feelings of "i wish i had never met him" all the tiime and then i look at my gorgeous son and think..."oh, that's why" hope today is a great one for you
You're right, and I am thankful to him for my babies.
Today should be a good day. I am letting the kids put up the tree today, and I am normally very anti-holiday. Sad, I know... I liked to put it up a week before Christmas, and take it down the the day after Christmas. Becoming a holiday person is a major 180 for me.
I texted H to see where he stores the Christmas stuff, and I know he was probably wondering why I would put it up so soon. That was a nice bonus.

Pretty d@mn normal right about now.
I know this sounds childish, but is there anything of his that's special or treasured or expensive in the garage? If so, take it. Swap it for your scale

Why yes, there is. I know just what I'll take in exchange for my scale. *evil laughter*
