good morning all!

I am angry and would like some input in how to handle a very delicate situation...

you all know the episode from a few nights ago when one daughter asked my h to come home...( she is simply meaning from work...)

ok, it is snowing like crazy here and h always did the sleds, snowmen and takes kiddos for rides pulling them on the innertubes behind the tractor. unfortunately for me this is what they expect.

anyways 5 y/o asks if she can call daddy...sure ive been told they can call whenever..

she calls and wants to know when he'll be home...because she want to play with him in the snow( i have tried already today, as diligently as i can...they want dad).

no clue as to what h says to her but as usual he takes it out on me. he feels like a prick, hes gonna tell them hes not coming home, he is soooo busy today...this isnt fair to him...

OMG!! i simply say ok i understand how busy you are, he is able to do the salting and plowing for work...thank god...

they are very excited about the snow...


how do i approach this all? psych agrees with me...with the other issues our 8 y/o has it is best to let them think h is working nights...he is screaming he is gonna tell them.

i know (or hope) it is only out of anger...this would destroy them both. they have been fine with how things have been, just get excited over certain things.

imo right now im glad he feels like a prick...maybe i shouldnt, i did not say or imply anything but...

ive been doing an AWESOME job these past 4 months ON MY OWN...

f him. maybe he SHOULD feel this way. he IS guilty to some extent no matter what his reasons are...


opinions please???
