I thought everything was okay.....(Part 3)

MCS, sorry about the crappy interaction today and I can definitely understand your frustrations.

I was wondering why did you choose to email your W instead of text in the first place? To me, email is something that is used when its not immediate and someone can take there time to reply (since they don't check it as often). Text is much more immediate. For something like catching a ride to the airport, I feel that the 2 hour advance email may not have been the best choice since you have no idea if she even checks her email that often.

As far as the text/call afterwards, as long as you were not rude on the phone, I thought you did nothing wrong. In this case, you actually had to be somewhere and needed to know what was going on with the kids.

Have you ever tried talking to your W calmly and telling her that this puts you and the neighbors in a bind when W and you have issues? Personally if I were the neighbor, I would feel that my generosity would run out...like you said, I don't want to be the go between between you and W. I feel that is a very awkward place to put your neighbor, unless you are good friends.

Sorry your W is not being considerate at all, pretty typical of WAW. Hope it all worked out ok
