Well, Mondays at the very least are not going to work out for me "reciprocating" the morning visits. They spent last night over at OM's place an hour away -- hadn't shown up at her mother's place this AM before I had to leave for work.
It's all a bit too clear that xW has far too many resources and advantages against me in playing these games of hers. Right now I'm just out-gunned.
I think I'm going to need to keep pushing after the parenting coordinator as my prime recourse.
Side note: xW and OM just had to squeeze in some camping this weekend -- they couldn't bear to let me have a good experience with my S's without trying to one-up me again. They pushed it despite heavy thunderstorms and torrential rain, which had been predicted all week long. I didn't find out about it until I called Friday Night -- S9 told me where they were, and I thought to myself how idiotic it was for them to tempt fate like this.
Thankfully, the weather finally chased them out of there by Saturday evening.
I guess I shouldn't be so surprised that they would put themselves and my S's in harms way, even knowing all the severe flood and high wind alerts and warnings. But foolishly persisting until it was already breaking loose atop them was just... insane. Anyone in their right mind would have canceled the trip under such circumstances.
(I can only imagine what would happen were I to ever do anything so reckless with our S's lives.)
I stayed indoors myself. I tried to lay low and to get a few things done in the apartment, more unpacking and settling in.
