Moved Back from Overseas to Figure This Out...

[S4tk]

Last week we had talked about taking the kids into the city the day or two after Christmas. So I asked W this morning if she wanted to do something together with the kids after I came home from work. She said that sounded fine. Came home a few hours early and played with D5 for a few hours while S1 was still napping.

When S1 awoke, I went up and asked W if she was ready to head out, and if she had any ideas for where to go. I had a few ideas but didn't want to assume anything.

She acted very confused, and asked what I was talking about. I reminded her of our morning discussion and she said she forgot. She then got upset and began yelling about not having time to get things done throughout the day, and that she couldn't get anything done while I was playing with D5 (D5 went upstairs to where W was working 3-4 times to get a few crayons, ask W a question, etc).

I then told W that I just had invited her and that I would go out with the kids alone, no problem. She got even angrier and said that I didn't ask what she wanted, and asked me what planet I am living on that I thought she would want to go out together with the kids.

I just got the kids ready without saying much, and told her I would probably feed the kids dinner while out.

Kids and I went to an indoor play place, had a fine 2-3 hours. While there, I was thinking, "Why do I want this?" Maybe I don't.
