Wife left

[CO1978]

Just journaling...Not much today. W called earlier today. She asked what days I was off so she could pick S up. I told her I don't go back to work until Sunday, which she is off so she will come get him (stay here until he wakes) in the morning. She asked if S was ok after the way she left Thursday (we were both in tears, S noticed and was a little upset) and to reiterate making sure I dress him warm enough. I told her I know how to take care of our S, she apologized and said she just worries about him and knows I know how to take care of him. I told her not to worry, its just her mother instinct taking over. I don't want to sound mean, but I hope her not seeing S until Sunday helps kick reality in to her, that this is how its going to be if we don't work things out. I know it was too painful for me to be away from him for 2 days, she will have to deal with it, because she is the one who walked out and I am not going to go without him. She mentioned she saw my Facebook post of putting the Christmas tree up and S sitting in front of tree. Other than that once again we talked about her work, S talked to her a little too (was on speaker phone), and that was that. My GALing went crappy though. Drove an hour and a half (because of traffic) to my hometown to see Christmas light show with S, only to find out when I got there I forgot my wallet. So drove home disappointed (another hour and a half, damn traffic). S made me feel good when I told him "Sorry we can't see the light show or Santa today, daddy forgot his wallet." He replied "That's ok daddy, its not your fault." That really made it all ok. Well tomorrow is my work's children's Christmas party, so I'll make it up to him there.
