I was thinking about why I don't want to sit down and discuss summer camps yet. Last summer, D10 got to go to a week long horseback riding camp. She loved it. D7 will turn D8 in July and would be eligible to go -- although truthfully with her ADHD it'd be tough to sign her up.
Either way, D10 definitely wants to go back but it's $525. If we were together we could afford it. Separated? No way. But if we sit down and start talking about camps, I'm worried she'll say "we" can't afford to send the girls to the horse camp -- and I'm worried , even if I don't say it, my tone and posture are going to say to her that it's her fault.
It is her fault.
Our life is her decision and while she's out trying to rediscover the 20s life she never really liked anyway the girls will have to settle for less.
Anyway, if the "meeting" goes in that direction I'm just not sure I can turn it around. I'm not ready.
I do know this. No way are we "together" going to talk to the girls about the camps. It's her decision to go this direction and she'll have to be the one to disappoint them.
