I'm doing good, a little stressed from several things but I'm well. The kids seem to be doing well for the most part too.
A few things I wanted to write about tonight. Xw has been over somewhat regularly. Friday she texted about her car saying she was scared to drive it. I fixed it for her and she was very grateful. She mentioned getting it cleaned up and taking better care of it after I fixed it so that is a good thing. Holy cow she has ran it into the ground though (I hadn't seen it in a long time). I don't expect anything from this but to have it safe for her and the kids. She stuck around for dinner, excited about the pizza I made, and we all ate dinner together which was nice.
I had the kids yesterday evening as xw went to a concert, she was supposed to go w/Mlc friend but told me she went alone when she was telling me about it when I came home from work. She picked the kids up from school and came to my house until I came home from work, she's done this a couple times now, saying its close to the school. She was also excited to tell me she got a new job. She has been complaining to me about her work for awhile and working on her resume here. She told me she was excited to get her weekends back with the kids and how she didn't want them to remember her working all the time. I can tell by the way she was talking she doesn't realize nearly 3 years has gone by since BD.
Something else I noticed is that she was hesitant to go to the concert on Mother's Day, s was a little upset and she gave me a look, she felt bad.
Now for some crazy. Our babysitter told me she wasn't available this summer and I couldn't figure anything out. Xw asked me about her sister coming back for the summer to help watch the kids. I have some reservations but I'm okay with it and it will help xw. I was thinking she would come here to watch the kids during the day. I'm pretty sure this is what we talked about. Xw now suggested xsil stay at my house during my week w/the kids. I told xw I thought it would be better if she stayed with her, she asked why and I told her I thought it was a little more normal. Xw was trying to justify it saying she wouldn't have to come over all the time that way, then got upset and said, fine if you don't want her here. I told her its not that and that I don't have a problem with xsil but I think it would be more normal for her to stay with her. She left upset, not sure what to say. That is strange right?
