Nothing very interesting, but WTH. I haven’t posted any type of update in a while, so….
I texted W last night to arrange picking up D this afternoon. I still need to get the online calendar thing setup. Main issue there, W is not much of a computer person. I could see it not working very well with her.
The other thing that had to be determined is a new meeting place, since she is now moved (in with OM ) and is coming from a different part of town.
Hey, at least this part works in my favor; we are now meeting very close to my work.
Now, quick preface here. She has been taking no initiative herself on these things lately. If I had not asked about the details who knows what she would have done. Then, she replies with…
A big long text about how she is going to go on a trip with her mom this weekend and how her and her mom would love for D to join them. Asked if we could switch this weekend with the next (i.e. She gets D this weekend (my normal) and then I get D the following.) She ends it with “if not, I totally understand.”
Also, her sister, BIL and nieces are going to be in town so she would see them that Sunday as well.
So she has had this planned long enough for her to take this weekend off from work, which is not very easy for her to do. So it has taken some time. But then she doesn’t bring it up to me until now?
Well, I have already rented a boat this weekend for us and some other family. So I let her know that we already had plans.
Then her response, it was a bit of a gut blow. Basically, “OK” then added that this trip was planned with her mom and her dad, so now she is going to go. She also said she would take D up later in the week to see her cousins.
Bam! Ouch! (for those who don’t know her dad passed away completely unexpectedly in May)
I am guessing it will be a tough trip for them.
But I am going to keep my plans with D this weekend. Shoot, already have the security deposit on hold for the boat.
But that still hurt a bit. I can sometimes forget how much see must still be hurting by the death of her dad.
I didn’t word it well, but her text just sounded….very sad.
So…. I will see her after work today and then again tomorrow morning to pick-up/drop-off D. Really hope D doesn’t freak out again when I drop her off.
What is it? Like sand through an hour glass?
