Last entanglement in Paris

[sleeper]

Her new life is not as perfect as she envisioned it would be.

OMH's work schedule has changed and he is out of town MUCH more than before they were married. The kids mentioned them fighting over this when it began a year ago. There is a seasonal aspect to OMH's work and X mentioned to me last night that one season just completed and another season was about to begin. This comment was in context of her requesting again that we switch weekends. When OMH is out of town he cannot help her with the kids (or anything) and she is totally on her own.

Would she call a lawyer? I dunno. Surely she realizes she has no grounds for such a frivilous (as the court would see it) change. On the other hand there was a time when I didn't think she would call a lawyer and go through with a divorce. Boy, was I wrong about that one.

The frustrating part is I will be the one to catch h#ll regardless of what she does. In her mind any difficulty due to the D is my fault because its my fault we're divorced. The legal costs are all my fault because the D is my fault. It's my fault if she has to hire a lawyer because if I would just give her what she wants instead of being "controlling" she wouldn't have to go to a lawyer and spend the money. ANY "negative consequences" for any action she has taken is ultimately MY FAULT.

I just hope OMH catches a little of this angst from time to time.
