Yesterday evening one of us was supposed to attend a cyber security seminar at S11's school 7:00 PM. Now since S11 has boy scouts at 7:30 PM, which I usually take him to, W was originally planning to attend the seminar (mandatory if your kid is going to carry a cell phone to school).
Anyway W is bogged down with papers to grade plus she's helping S11 finish a science project due Friday, hinted she doesn't have time to do seminar. So I volunteered. I said I'll go, you drop S11 off at scouts and I'll pick him up later.
No sooner am I out the door when W comes out and "confronts" me saying "You are only going so everyone will see how involved you are w/kids and I am not." Huh ???. I tried to reassure her, "I am only going to relieve you of the burden."
She mentioned something I said which I cannot for the life of me remember ever saying about her not being involved with the kids. I don't know where that came from (maybe an angry outburst).
Anyway, last nite before I asked her about the couch, I reiterated that I really didn't want to go to seminar and was doing it for her. I think/hope she believed me.
God I hate this!
