Focus on Me and the Boys 9

[J5K]

j20,

Yes, I can contact her through email. I have her parent's house number also if there is an emergency.

xW calls my cell 3 times tonight and work phone 2 times and also sends an email about me not calling her tonight to speak with the boys and how I did not giver her notice about cancelling the cell phone.

Here is her email:

Jim,

I've asked two days in a row now to speak to the kids to no avail. I understood that yesterday you were at a function but I did ask to speak to them tonight. When I tried to call you, I realized my phone is out of service. Did you cut off my phone? I was willing to pay the bill until I found an appropriate plan here. There was no need to that. Nor was it courteous not to even inform me.

Please respond.


Here is how I plan to respond tomorrow morning:

xW,

Thank you for understanding that we were at the baptism.

Between work and getting 5 boys ready for Halloween we had a full day. I realize that you miss them and will have them contact you tomorrow.

With regards to the cell phone, when we spoke on October 17th, at that time, I suggested you transfer your service by the end of October. It must have felt terrible to realize your cell phone was disconnected.


I am sure she will not like the response. I did invite her to come trick or treating with the boys which she declined and said she had plans this past weekend. She also stated in her email that she was willing to pay the bill (she never mentioned to me in our verbal conversations). I did verbally advise her on Oct 17th that I would be cancelling the phone and suggested she transfer her number (I emailed my L about the phone on the 17th).

If there are any suggestions on a better way to respond, please feel free to revise my response.
