There are 2 things that kept me up last night.

1. My s. He was out of bed every few minutes till way past midnight. Of course this is typical on an exciting day but what got me was H disregard of the situation. The room he sleeps in is right across the hall. I know he was awake because I could hear his phone beeping over and over with incoming texts. He made no effort to help even when s was crying "I miss my Daddy"

This is not coparenting. He only takes responsibility for S when I am not there and then I worry that he is not attentive. (Hanging out in basement and leaving S alone). I can't see talking to him about it. It took a week to get him to sit down to talk about who will be with S all the days of winter break. I got 2 min of his time and in the end I still only have a vague "I will see what I can do. " btw.. This is new he used to be a very attentive father.

2. Getting very nervous about going to Alanon wed night. Particularly what to say when H asks me where I am going and he probably will if it interferes with his own desire to go out.
There are no other options as I am already borrowing money to cover all the times I will need babysitter in Dec and no friends or family close to watch S.
