Well, the looniness continues. I re-wrote the "parenting plan" because STBX had the kids with me every school vacation for a week; December, February, April. I love my kids, but I was doing custodial care so that she could just go to work, and I actually had them more than her. That's OK, but then give me the house and make me the custodial parent.
When I re-wrote the plan, making it equitable (I take one vacation, she takes the next, not rocket science) she agreed because (my guess is) her attorney looked at the old plan and told her "He's got the kids more than you do, so you need to accept his proposal"
Well, she has the kids for this vacation, and makes plans to take them skiing. OK, that's good. D17 tells her boss she can't work for the next three days, and he told her if that happens start looking for a new job. (He's a great young guy who owns a deli and has a business to run, so I get that. MY D19 also works for him when she's home and in the summer)
I was at the gym last night and come out to see that I had missed 22 calls from D17!(a little OCD?) She is in tears, and asks me if she can stay with me for three days. I told her of course. She then asks STBX if she can use the infamous "Jeep" that her Smarmy Paramour Boss bought for my daughter when I was in Iraq, to get to work from my house.
STBX,in the background of the phone says, filled with vitriol says "NO! You'll have to make other arrangements!" (Translation: Your father will have to drive you, because he was angry when the boss that I was having an affair with wanted to buy you the Jeep and I'll never allow you to use it if it benefits him!)
D17 is now frantic. I just told her: "Relax, I'll take you to work and pick you up"
STBX seems to be unravelling more and more, She's out "where the buses don't run!"
I was going to make plans to reconnect with a couple of good friends from Iraq, but that will have to wait. It's all good!
Gym Woman took me to a resort-spa for Valentines Day. It was two great days. That's going great, and I may offer that this may be why STBX is loonier than ever.
She once asked me: "Don't you want to find someone who knocks your socks off?" I guess when I did, she wanted a "do over".
