Ginger, We are the normal ones! The xhs are the ones abducted by aliens.
I am so sorry to hear that your xh isn't more helpful with d8. You're probably right that he just wants to be uncle dad. It may not be easy for you now but D8 will thank you for not depriving her of her time with her dad.
I do hope that you will be able to get more CS to cover for babysitting. I am in the same position as you and I know how GD tiring everything can be.

You can call me Dory/ Grl.

It's no use to go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.
