Just finishing a full week of NC and took S24 to the airport this morning. Back to an empty house. D19 got some great news about her upcoming job at Disney World this summer where she will be joining S24. She called me right away but didn't want to talk to W. W found out from D19 Facebook status update I think.
Heard back from my lady friend from the John Oates concert about her coffee date with W. She said that she mostly listened and that W is definitely in need of help but does not see that.
W said things like "Ken is unstable" "Ken has been suicidal" "Ken is turning the kids against me" typical crazy WAW stuff but it still is hard to hear.
W says that OM is "perfect" and feels that she is the victim in all of this and that I am the bad guy.
She says that our 4 hour phone conversation (the last time we talked) was her "talking me down". What a pile of crap!
She still thinks everyone is judging her. I just find it fascinating that if she is worried about my mental state that she didn't say anything to the kids to be sure and watch out for any problems with Dad while they were staying with me. I have told the kids of my concern for their mother's mental state.
She also commented that she got some strange text message from me last week (see previous postings above) saying that things are over but it was really strange. Well I'm not sure how it could be less clear but to a WAW in a major fog I'm not sure if anything can be made clear.
My friend did bring up a couple of things with W, the first was that the kids have to go at their own pace and the second was that she thought I was doing everything right by going to counseling and going to church and my mens group and relying on friends and both of these were met with a shutdown by W.
My friend did also bring up the fact that it is just sad (which I totally agree with) and that I shouldn't get down but just consider the source and the state that she is in. It just boogles the mind!
My S24 had a great phrase that he borrowed from Scrubs to describe his Mom last November when he was trying to help me and it always brings a smile to my face and helps me in times like this.
"She's just a big ol can of crazy" right now! No disrepect meant to anyone's sitch, it just makes me smile.
