Good morning ladies, I think the Christmas cards idea will be cathartic for me...I've been upset with his family lately for not reaching out to me or even asking how I'm doing or if I need anything. I think taking a step back and being the bigger person by thanking them for letting me be a part of their family will be good.
Good luck with the football game this weekend! It seems like a really good sign to me that he is asking you to do things! Yesterday went ok, I didn't contact him so I'm proud of myself for that. But I just feel overwhelmingly disappointed that he doesn't try to contact me at all. I hate that. Why doesn't he miss me? Why doesnt he miss the kids? How can he not even wonder how they are doing? These are the things that go through my head repeatedly. I am curious if he will ask about Saturday, I had asked him to watch kids because I have to run into work but my new plan is to just take the kids with me so that I'm not so dependent on him. I had text him about it like 5 days ago and he never bothered to respond so he probably has plans with OW anyways. So my plan is to take the kids with me and then head into the city to see the lights and the tree and santa. I'm hoping we can just have a great time and forget all about him for a bit.
