Turned out to be a different day than we expected. We decided to wait and go fishing later in the day, when we might have better luck, so I took S11, golfing for 9 holes in the late morning. While golfing, my brother calls and says he has 4 free tickets to the Brewers game, which is where W is also going. I tell him, we are in!
After golf, I take S to local carnival and meet up there with D9, who is with the neighbors. They go on a bunch of rides and I talk with the neighbor lady. She has had some conversations with W, and in May, she says she had a conversation with W where W said she would be willing to live the way we were for a couple of years even. Then less than a month later, she files for D? I wonder what changed her mind so quickly? Maybe OM, who now won't leave his W? This is crazy to hear.
We leave the carnival and go to my brother's to pick him up for the game. We get there early and watch batting practice and I grab a ball that is hit into the stands. The kids are very excited about that. W texts me and asks if the kids are having a good time. Of course they were. I waited an hour before texting her back. I said "No, are you? Where are your seats?" She tells me which section and it is only 2 sections from where we are sitting. She asks where our are. I wait a while to text back and actually see her walk into the stands and to her seat. She is going with a bunch of people from work.
I texted her "I'm watching you." and she says, "Where are you?" I say "2 sections over." She asks "Which way?" I played with her for a little while longer and then she spotted us and came over to where we were and sat down for about an inning. She tells me S called her a liar earlier for telling him that we both wanted the D. He had asked about it earlier in the day, similar to D. When she came over to sit by us, he was angry with her and told her to leave because he wanted to spend time with his Dad and Uncle. W then went back to sit with her work friends. Too many are divorced or single. I think they are bad influence on W.
Stayed until the end of the game and the Brewers beat the Pirates. We had a great time. Took my brother home and came back to our house. Kids say they are surprised that we beat Mom home since my brother lives 20 minutes in the opposite direction. I ask them why they are surprised and tell them that Mom is probably "going out". One of the few things she actually likes to do. I put kids to bed and logged in here. We have been home about 40 minutes now and W is still out. I don't expect her to be home until VERY late.
Time will tell.
I am taking the kids to the Renisance Faire in Bristol tomorrow with another couple and their son. Free kids weekend and a discounted ticket for me. Only $12 for all 3 of us to get in. It should be another good day for us!
