I decided to accept the invite it just felt like the right thing to do. I may end up regretting it particularly if it puts into a funk. I'm going to do my best to guard against that. Although I am having a bit of an off day today which is likely related to thinking about how to respond and than ultimatley responding.
I do intend to cover for the STBX when she is out of town those days. However, I didn't offer it up in my reply to her email. I asked her if she had those days covered while she was gone. I want her to ask me if I will cover it rather than implying I will. Maybe I'm being a bit of a prick but I don't want her to think I'm at her beckoned call.
I think back (Nov./Dec.) to how she would simply tell me she was going on trip and leave me with the kids while she went off to see the OM in Chicago. Rubbing salt in my wounds. I'll never forget that BS.
It will be interesting to see how her family members interact with me. I'm sure a few of them will be there and I imagine talk of our sitch will probably not come up. I plan on spending most of my time with kids anyhow.
How are holding up DW?
