So, I've got a couple of things coming up that I could use some opinions on.

The first is this coming weekend. My kids will be with me and as usual my W has mandated that the time with them is to be spent in her home town where they're living. The time is to be from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon. I am thinking I need much more time with them than that and that I can't just go along with whatever my W is telling me. I am planning to bring my kids back to my province Friday afternoon and keep them here until Monday afternoon. My oldest D would miss a day of school.

Besides that, my W's bday is coming up in just over a week. I think I should at least wish her a happy bday and help our kids get their Mom a bday present and card. Besides that, I had thought a considerate gift would be to give my W an external hard drive with all of our pictures and videos on it from the entire time we were together. She has none of them and I would think she would like to have them, even if only so she has pics and vids of our kids.

Thoughts?
