You should tell her that since you didn't have the kids today, you made plans already to go out with a "friend".

If she happens to ask who, tell her it's someone new, that she doesn't know them and that unfortunately you're getting ready to go out and can't spend too much time talking and that you will see the kids at the scheduled time.

That's it.

AND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!........
- Don't get pulled into a lengthy conversation, in fact avoid it at all costs, if she tries to make you feel guilty, tell her you don't have time for an argument and you won't reward her crap behavior with your attention anymore, life is too short and you have better things to do.
