Just a quick background. Today is HER day with the kids mind you, but our daycare is closed so I offered to split the day with her to help her out on her Birthday. I never should have agreed to it, but whatever, now I am reaping the whirlwind.

So she text me saying...

"Hey thanks a lot for not watching the kids while I had my interview. They were screaming and fighting in the background. I won't forget that you didn't help me out when I needed you."

I responded with...

"Don't try to paint me out to be the bad guy here. I told you yesterday and again this morning that I had a Skype call for work that was going to take 2 to 3 hours. I was going to over my final data that I spent the last week preparing. I understand things come up, I tried to be as accommodating as possible. But there was nothing I could do. I would have gladly rearranged my schedule to fit yours and I did for the morning to make sure you could go to said interviews and what not. It [censored] that it got canceled this morning and you rescheduled it for later. But it's not my fault, I stuck to the plan."

Then I wrote...

"I am not going to text fight with you. Hell, I am not going to fight with you at all. Have fun tonight. If you want to talk call me."

So I did what I shouldn't have done and called her. She said "I am not going to let you ruin my night because you ruined my afternoon! I am going out tonight with MY friends (everyone that is meeting her there she met through me) and going to have FUN! I am not going to talk to you about this" and hung up on me.

So I text her back and said

"You are mad at the situation and blaming me for it. This is not my fault. You knew I had to work, I don't understand why you won't accept that."

I am fuming right now. I mean, what am I supposed to do? My kids have been with me since Weds, it's her weekend, yet she is mad that I didn't drop everything to accommodate her. What the actual F???? This is what she wanted, not what I wanted. She wanted to split up, she said she could handle it on her own, she wanted to move out, this is all on her. What should I do here?
