The MLCer is a weird one. On Sunday, W blew a fuse about me having the first week of the October school holidays off, telling me how I should have asked her and how I should compromise.

Today, W brings the kids over for their tea and SD came to see me as well. SD has a new hair do, courtesy of W and we chatted whilst D was hugging me and S was busy on his laptop (his autism makes him reach out for familiar, repetitive things). W initially smiled at me and gave me eye contact, but seemed to resent that SD was talking to me and started staring out of the window. Not once did she bring up the holidays (I'd prepared myself for that one!) and seemed distant, but pleasant.

W picked them up later and said a cheery 'bye' to me. I'm not scheduled to see the kids, and by default W, for a week. I've got my GAL weekend this coming Saturday, so, that will be a rest from the stress - for a couple of days anyway!
