Feeling good, but venting a little. I was texting the W about the timing of a potential vacation for just me and the kids later in the summer. She goes from "ok, just let me know" to "I've got to go I'm losing it" in like 2 seconds flat.

Monday night when I was leaving the house I could tell she was wigging out a bit because I was going out of town for work but wasn't giving her all the details. She knew where I was going and I said just call my cell. It's all about control.

I just lose a little patience with this because the pain being caused is SOMEWHAT self-inflicted. Yes, I know this is all a process, but I'm not going to have pity when she's doing it.

I have been empathetic with her, but when I feel it makes sense. When she's losing it for control, I'm letting that go. The other day she confessed that my D13 are so close that she often feels like an outcast and left out. I told her that I was sorry she felt this way.

Again, nothing big today, but just more ramblings of a LBS... Anyone else have some experiences similar to this???
