So W texted me this morning "Can I keep the kids 1 more night this week for a church activity" This is her week.
After a few hours I answered her text "OK - the following week (my week) can I have them 1 more night too?"
Her reply "You had them this past weekend"
Argghhh
In my mind she asked for an extra day, I said OK thinking I was being flexible and cooperative.
Her reply when I asked for an extra day during my week was no.
?????!!!!
So now of course I feel like saying "no, sorry you can't have them for the extra day" Of course I am not going to say that but how do I get out of this one? A day trade is a day trade? I don't get it. Am I missing something here?
My suggested response is thus
"W, I agreed to an extra day during your week, becuase you asked. Plesae grant me the same courtesy. I will drop them off on XX" Thank you."
