You know what, I've thought long and hard about these comments above. I think I'm generally on the right path but everything you've all written above is true:
I need to stop checking on W. I need to switch my focus over to myself and kids...completely I won't include/invite W for birthday celebration. I will try and sell the tickets to recoup my money.
I will continue in the same vein I have as I have these last two weeks as it seems to be working.
Now to today:
W called. I ignored it. I went for a walk around the block and called back. I asked did she want anything. She joked back 'yeah, of course, or I wouldnt have rang you'. She also asked why my number comes up as private. Didn't tell her I changed my phone settings. I was upbeat, acted as if. Reason for her call: I'm picking the kids up from hers instead of MIL apparently due to them ot having coats at MIL (I have coats for them). Hmmm.
Weather has cooled off a lot today. Gonna have to find something to do with the kids.
