OK, really... My W sends me an email a couple hours ago...
AGAIN... to recap... W wants me and my family to go to her place for a b-day party for D8...
My plan is have a b-day supper and gifts with my family when she's with me mid next week...
My W has stated last Sunday that her family and "friends" all think I'm trying to scr3w her in the D... I don't have that luxury, even if I wanted to...
So my W wants to put me and my family in a room together with a group of people who think I'm trying to scr3W her...
Last Sunday, I mentioned if she thought that would be a good idea... and she basically admitted it would probably not go over well... and won't be extending the invite...
Her email (as always interspersed in "other stuff"):
"I did end up passing an email to your family about D8's birthday on Sunday. I want you to know that we will be having a BBQ any time after 4:00 and the door is open .... Whether you walk through it or not is up to you. For what it's worth, my family would never make you feel uncomfortable, as this is about D8."
I am at a complete loss as to what to say to this woman. The only thing that I can think is going on here is D8 has told my W that she wants my family there. The conundrum is, Sunday is her actual b-day...
I guess I'm pretty much trying to figure out how to tell her that I already have plans for D8's b-day. What my family does will be up to them. And I will call D8 earlier in the day to wish her a happy b-day...
