Wow, w is really something tonight. She was giving me a little grief this morning because I forgot to rsvp for a bday party for the kids. I just asked her to send me a pic of the invite and took care of it, no biggie.
We did text a little this afternoon. She asked to take the big dog to work. I said sure, kept it short. Then a little later she texted that they got robbed this weekend while her boss was there but she didn't know until after they were gone. We texted a little but I kept it short still.
Tonight she called to ask if I wanted her to pick up the kids. Then said she'd meet at my house since she didn't have car seats. As soon as I came home I could sense her hostility. I pulled in the garage and took the dog in while the kids ran over to her car. I heard them ask her for gum. They told me she promised them some yesterday (on another note I had to cut gum out of d's hair tonight lol). The kids came in then I see her back out of the driveway and take off down the street like a maniac. Stupidly I called, the kids didn't know what was going on, I didn't, and I didn't know if her dog was here. No answer. She showed up later and gives them gum and starts in with anger. "I'm a f'ing s***** mom, I don't have anywhere to live, the least I can do is give them gum" and walks off. I was just about to serve dinner but needed butter so I asked if she would stay while I ran out. D was doing homework and asked for my help so I told her her mom would love to help. When I got back I told her she was welcome to eat with us and she said "no I ate lunch today." then she tells me about another apartment, so I guess she got denied and is spewing. She asked me if I needed anything from natural grocers then said the wraps I buy are gross and she's going to get s some different ones.
She then tells me again "I'm a s***** mom and the kids hate me" turns and tells the kids love you, they don't respond, then she storms out. Later in the night she texts she couldn't find any wraps. I thanked her for looking and she was nice. Then a little later she tells me she wants the kids over Christmas. We discussed this briefly awhile back and I didn't agree to anything. I didn't reply. Not sure how to deal with this. I really don't want to give up the kids for another holiday but realize it's part of all this. I also think it would be good for her to have to miss them. I had them for Easter and the 4th but she willingly had it that easy to be with om. Her loss. I think I will just give it a couple days and see what happens. She's really out there tonight.
