UPDATE: Wife turned her phone on at 4 pm, called me and cheerily asked "How are you feeling?!" Asked if she could keep the kids another night (surprise, surprise). I told her that her having her phone off is absolutely not acceptable. She said "I know, I know. I just forgot about it. I know how it looks though." Hmm. I let her keep the boys for the night since we are meeting at church anyway in the morning, and then I'll get them back.

Asked her what nights she wanted this week for the boys, and she said immediately "Tues, and Weds." Looking at the calendar, that looks very convenient. Have the boys a couple of nights, then whisk off with dbag for New Year's Eve parties. "Sounds convenient for you and Dbag's plans" I said. I think I'll give her Wed and Fri as a result. She lives in another world.

I also gave her a nice talking to about how I'm not a fall back plan, a plan B if you will, and that with every crazy action she takes, she puts a nail into the coffin of our marriage. Told her that I'm able to forgive, but that I'm not forgetting how she continues to act in such immature ways, and I'm a good, patient man, but I'm not going to wait around for her to find her sanity. Don't think that was backsliding, but not sure.

Only on this forum would others completely understand this crazy situation I find myself in. It's like some type of movie where you sit there and say, "Dude, that wife is NUTS!" and munch on your popcorn. Problem is, it's my wife. And it's not funny to me. It's pathetic, immature, and damaging to so many people.

Trying to stay busy. Working on my book and watching movies tonight.
