Well. W being miserable to be around the past few days. Apparently she refers to me as "Ds Dad" now when talking about me to other parents. Heard her say that multiple times when parents dropped their kids off for Ds birthday party today. Including when I was standing right beside her.
So, Ds bday today. Kid turns 10! Woke up early and did presents with her. W got some, I got some. W did the card and actually put both our names on it this time. I got donuts for us this morning bc D asked for fresh donuts. W threw away the two I got for her. I spent the morning doing Pokémon cards and iPad with D. Did lunch then D and I went out to play for a few hours. Back around 5 and Ds friends started showing up for her party/sleepover. I picked up pizza for them, we did cake and gifts, and now the girls are upstairs and W and I are on the couch. W just snapped at me for a cracking noise my ankle was making when I moved it.
W has been very unpleasant for a few days now. The good news is she is eating a lot healthier, getting to bed earlier, and exercising again. However, I find myself wondering if it's bc D and I will be on a trip together in a week and W will be alone. A perfect opportunity for D to go see OM.
That said, I'm so looking forward to this trip with D. A lot less stressful without W there. One week of just dad and D bonding! We will have an amazing time!
Wondering what I do if W does go to see OM. Unsure how I'd take it. Gut tells me it forces me to throw in the towel, but it could be I'm just beaten down and tired after the past few days. I don't know.
Off to get jumped on for my "creaking" bones...
