I'll share my formula...a handful of happy pills with the bubbly stuff- the world really does feel like a walk in the park...with colorful butterflies and all. Try it sometime.
A handful of Sweet Tarts with Cream Soda? WTH can that do?
Just spoke to my kids and apparently wife is off on another rant about how they bought me something from the CNE when I was sick. "No one ever buys me anything when I'm sick blah blah blah" D16 says "she goes on like it's her against the world, I'm never having grandchildren, I wouldn't want to expose them to her" Yes, just another harmonious evening at STBX's love shack!
How are you doing mr Super Hero, oh er ugh, I mean Mr sick man??(Don't want to blow your cover) Hope you are feeling better. Sad to hear that with your STBX it still has to be about what she wants, needs, doesn't get. Good that the girls have you as their rock.

I bet you were the one who coddled her and bought her stuff when she was sick. Am I right? Ah, poor STBXW, the girls learned to repay the one who does, not the one who does not.
Take care.

Your STBXW sounds like the third kid in the house. The oldest kid yet the most childish.

Once she gets pissed about one thing such as the dishes not being done it opens the whole grab bag of her grievances and the kids have to listen to her rant through the list. She once said to me "I need to walk away when I'm like this" Well, maybe she should actually try it once in a while instead of just doing more of the same! But, this is the same woman who didn't see the need to go for MC "why should I go for counselling, it'll just show that I'm to blame and have a lot of problems. I already know that so why should I go?" Try to reason with that kind of logic. But that's the mindset that my kids live with folks!
Today I was supposed to go to Medieval Times with my wife and kids, I'd been looking forward to it. I woke up this morning and felt worse than last Saturday, just couldn't stop coughing. I'm exhausted. I went back to the doctor on Thursday because I felt I wasn't getting over this thing, so he gave me a new anti-biotic prescription and said to use it if I wasn't feeling better in the next day or two. Last night I decided to take it. Today I feel like crap, I'm really frustrated because I wanted to have this good time with the kids and now I won't. D16's bf is going in my place. I phoned wife this morning and told her the situation and she said "I know you're sick and it's not your fault but it's a bit frustrating when we've made plans and you can't come. I know it's not your fault, it's just that the girls want to go with you and now they can't!" I apologized to D16 and told her I felt really bad because I wanted to go and she said "Hey, it's not like you want to be sick, you're just sick. So you stay home and sleep today" This was before we decided to ask her bf to go. D13 was at a sleepover and wife was picking her up but D16 said "I phoned D13 and she says for you to rest and get better". Such great kids! So this long weekend it will be rest, meds and get rid of this f'ing thing. I'm so pissed right now. I'm missing all the fun stuff with my girls, first the CNE and now Medieval Times. I missed the week at the cottage, which was choice...but I still hate this.
Hey, Wii, sorry to hear you're under the weather. Hope you feel better soon, and sorry you had to miss the fun. I have to notice your Ds seem WAY more mature than your W...

Thanks Karen, they really are incredible kids! They are truly empathetic and caring human beings. I love 'em
