The Easter issue has come up for me. I just got an email from the W asking me if I would be interested in joining with the kids and her Mom and possibly others. It is a bit of a late notice if you ask me but...
Not sure how to play this one. I want what is best for the kids and this is a pretty major holiday but I know the net result will be to bring me down emotionally. I ran it by a couple of my coworkers and they feel I should attend as it is in the best interest of the children. I have a hard time arguing with that.
She is also bugging me for my vacation schedule as her new job is requiring her to travel in early June to Vegas of all places. This "work trip" apparently is Sat - Tue. and will require me to pick up a couple of her scheduled days with the kids. I don't mind having the kids for a couple of extra days but part of me wants proof that this is a work trip and not a OM junket. Part of me wants to make her squirm on this one but I'm quite sure I'll need a return favor in the future.
Any suggestions on how I should proceed with these new issues?
In the same email she informs me that she is available to do some painting to help prep. the house for sale. This is painful as it continues to demonstrate that she is complete done and not looking back at all. I love the house (and I know she did as well) but I can't handle the nut solo. She knows this but clearly could careless about how giving it up affects me. I'm going have to suck it up and move on.
