Hi Hawho. Strangely, it was a reminder that this really is a crisis as I sometimes question it after living w/it for so long. I wonder what the kids will think of this later. I've been talking to them a lot about taking care of our things lately.
W tried to get to me Friday night. The kids (and her in the background) were telling me about juice cicles on the phone and we're making it a big thing. I asked them if they made them like we had made pudding pops the weekend before. After talking to them w sent a text about not telling the kids she isn't as good as me and especially when she doesn't have time to do things and how I am disgusted by it, etc. I didn't know what she was talking about at first but then figured it out. I told her sorry she thought that but I don't do or think that of her and since she was calling them juice cicles and it was a big thing I assumed they made them. She sent a lol back w/a short explanation and forgot about it. Not playing those games.
Why didn't anyone tell me it wasn't Easter weekend after my last post lol.:) W brought the kids over Saturday morning and was telling me about her work and a funny story w/D. I told her I was going to dye eggs w/them and asked if she'd like me to wait for her. She said that would be great so we waited for her to get off work. The kids had a good time but after w sat at the table by herself on the phone for an hour or so before leaving. She also critiqued some of the stuff I got (a roller that didn't work) which I just ignored. We didn't hardly talk and it was a little weird but I just hung out w/the kids. As they were leaving I asked how she wanted to do Sunday. We were both confused until she told me today wasn't Easter. We had a good laugh, she wondered why I planned on dying eggs so early.
My parents are Greek Orthodox so usually their Easter is on a different day (they had been talking a lot about it next week) but this year they are the same but I assumed they weren't and thought it had to be today. W and I had another good laugh when I told her why.
Had a good time w/kids yesterday and spent most of the day outside but today was super windy so I got some spring cleaning done and took some stuff to goodwill.
After talking to the kids tonight w texted me funny pictures of the kids she changed w/her phone. I replied w/an inside joke and she replied back w/lol and reference to it. I left it at that, normally I would've texted some more. Idk what to think we've had almost no contact for a couple weeks except last Monday which was ugly. I guess I shouldn't care but I don't want to seem like a jerk and ignore her but don't want to be waiting and available for her either. Hopefully a short reply is the way to go, not ignoring but not wanting to be where she left me. Idk.
