Me: Oh, so you told "School Name" that they would be there, then? (BC I only signed them up for times I was taking them.)
D: (more annoyed than before) No. I didn't.
Me: You can drop them at my house on the way to work.
D: I don't know. If school doesn't know they are coming then I can just ask my dad to watch them. Or just forget it, I will just have to take the day off.
Me: I don't care what you do I just said I would take them if you wanted me to.
D: Fine I'll do that.
Me: This is why I asked you a month ago (Dan continues walking away--btw we were standing by an overturned port-a-potty at the time at the ball field and it did stink!!)...oh are you leaving?
D: I don't want to stand here and talk this thing stinks...
Me: Ok then.
I walked back to my car and shot him a text: I don't care if they come to my house or your dad's or if you call and tell School in the morning that they are coming. I sent you a text monday asking what the plan was for kids during the day on your days, and had already sent a couple emails to that effect. I don't care one way or another but I am not a mind reader.
Sheesh! I know I didn't even need to do that! In hindsight should have said nothing at all except goodbye and goodnight to the kids. He would have found out when he took the kids to school that they weren't on the day's roster.
[Our daycare is kind of odd to me in that every single week, you are to highlight which days the kids will be there, am and/or pm, and also which meals they will be having, breakfast, lunch, or both. Every week, year-round. So I mark when I am going to have them there, and during the year I marked the times I knew Dan would take them there as well. For summer I did not do that bc it would bump us up from half-time to full-time prices]
