Crazy day. W and S12 barely made it to church today, them they went to eat lunch after service. S10 and I went home because we were still full from breakfast. W came home and went straight to bed.

Full day for me:
-Took S10 to breakfast, Sunday school, and service.
-Moved in a new dryer and moved out old one. Up stairs and all.
-Swept and dust mopped entire house. (Just tired of looking at it)
-Played basketball with S12 for an hour after raking portion of back yard.
-Ran 3 miles.
-Washed, dried, folded 4 loads of laundry so far.
-Took S10 to Christmas play practice at church.

Very active parent today. All the while, W is in her room asleep/whatever alone.

Here's the fun part: When I walked into MBR to get my things to take S10 to practice, I get venom about doing so much. She spews that "She can handle it." I calmly said "It's no big deal, I told him I'd take him. I'm up and ready." I get "Of course it's no big deal. Just like taking S12 to football game and shoe shopping yesterday was no big deal." Dripping with venom and hatred.

WTF? I'm being an active parent and doing things with my boys and she resents it. I guess I'm getting into her territory of just "handling it." Maybe she thinks I'm trying to replace her, or root her out, or get them on my side for impending D. Of course, trying to make sense of her actions is useless at this point.

Bottom line: I have had a great weekend with my boys. I've met wonderful new friends at church. I have been really practicing listening skills with these new friends as well.
