Thanks. I find similar quotes out there that help me, from John Wayne and Clint Eastwood ha. Also, there are definitely two parts to it. What are your boundaries and what are the consequences for crossing them. Not always easy to do both.
Not much to report today. W was over texting this AM, I ignored for the most part but then she asked if a Bubble Guppies shirt for S upcoming bday would be good. I said yes, he'd really like that. Something we have done for all 3 bdays, which kind of makes me sad as we used to sit and choose them together. She also wants to talk about his bday tomorrow when she drops him off. FF to the PM, I'm coming back from going #1 and my work phone takes 1 last ring and hangs up. 15 minutes later I get a text "If I call it's about S." I don't like that tone, and tell her I was away from my desk and I really don't appreciate being spoken to that way.
She has no idea but responds "I'm unsure where this cool, cold, distant demeanor is coming from but I'm doing my best to be ok for S." Hmm. Fishing a little me thinks. She mentions she has his school lessons and will bring tomorrow so we can work on them. Before she sent that I said "It feels like you're talking down to me." She doesn't respond to it, but it really feels to me like she still has the attitude of if I'm calling you it's important because I'm important (but if you call me, I can treat you however I want).
Proceeding, we end up talking about how he might be sick and get into that. That's a bit more legit, although it just sounds like it MAY be a cold. Again, if D, that's just something you handle and communicate about during a dropoff unless it turns into the flu.
Oh these weird moments!!
