Very little contact with W at all last night. Kids were at neighbors when I got home and W was sitting on the couch watching the Brewers on TV. She said "Hey" when I came in, but then sat there stone faced for a long time. Don't know if what I am doing is bothering her or not. She doesn't know how to play poker, but she has a pretty good poker face.
As noted above, I taked to my mortgage broker last night and my equity position is not looking good right now and the market values continue to drop. Still gathering information, but at least I will have a plan. W will have none. She is clueless.
Had herself locked in her room again talking on the phone this morning. Just now she got another call and walked outside so I can't hear her. She is always on the phone. Probably already told you guys this, but she ran her cell phone bill from the normal $80 per month to $150 and $135 the last 2 months. She is just stupid.
After the kids came home from the neighbors last night, I spent some time with them. W went upstairs to bed early to read because her stomach was bothering her. That has been an ongoing issue for her for quite some time. Too much stress. Funny how I don't really feel it any anymore. I followed her upstairs and told her that I have decided that it will just be me and the kids going on vacation. She is not coming along. She took it like a trooper, but asked if my Mom was going along. She is, but I told W that I didn't know yet. W is worried about what D will do when S wants to play golf. D doesn't enjoy it too much. That conversation was really pretty easy. Thanks to all for your advice on how to handle it. Then I told her I was going out. She asked if I was going to the neighbors and I just said no and left.
Kids went up to read at 9pm and I wished them goodnight and went out to meet some friends at a local bar. Had a few beers and went to another to find the little blondie. She wasn't working anymore, but she was sitting at the bar. She is VERY popular. Lots of people talking to her. After my friends left, I moved over to the bar and she recognized me right away. I am the garden guy!
Hung around for a few more drinks and talked with her and others at the bar for while. (W just got on the phone again.) When I left, shook hands with the guys and got a couple of big hugs from the blondie. She has a wild streak, but seems to be VERY sweet. She was also complaining about her current boyfriend. We may have to rememdy that. It was a very good night. Got home just after 1am.
My friend from work, a nice looking, but married woman I have worked with for 15 years, invited me to go to the "Country Thunder" music festival with her today. She has an extra ticket. So when I got up this morning, I told W that I am going out again tonight. Told her I got invited, but not by whom. She asked if I was doing anything today (I'm off) and I told her I am meeting someone around noon. I wonder if she thinks all these nights out are related/with the same person. She continues to be very stoic.
Anyway, gotta run. I'm GAL!!!! Sorry for the long post.
