Do you live in a cold climate? If so, your W may look at it this way- you drive a work van that you park outside anyway, so you're not using the garage yourself. Meanwhile a car that never gets driven is in the garage all the time. She could be enjoying coming and going from a nice, warm garage instead of trekking out into the cold every day. To her it may not make sense for a car that doesn't get used to take the prime garage space.

She is also getting mad at me because I am not telling her things. Our son missed a birthday party because I didn't tell her about it, the point is I laid the invitation on top of another one. She thought it was a craft and didn't look at it, so I'm the bad person because she didn't look at it, I needed to tell her. She has not been talking to me, so I have been following the nc rule.
"No contact" doesn't apply to kid stuff. When it comes to the kids you should by all means communicate with your W. And if your NC is making things worse instead of better, then do something different. Remember the chapter about cheeseless tunnels?
