Today she called about S to make arrangements with me to help pay for day care. Since she moved two days ago, she would have to transfer schools and her work schedule doesn't really work for that. But Monday she has an interview for the job in my office.
She was going to her grandmother's funeral. I told her to be careful and give them a hug for me. She said "No. They don't even talk to me because of you (note: referring to me talking to them about what had gone on several months ago...as in, the conversations happened several months ago), and I don't want to talk to them if they like you, so no. Hug them yourself. I just want to get off the phone civilly. This is why I'm mad at you, because YOU pushed my family away from me (note: she always said she was never close to most of them anyway). F*** you!"
M - "I thought you said "civilly"...
W - "You know what...you're right. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that."
M - "It's okay, I understand. I'll let you go, have a good day."
I got home and a letter from the court was in the mailbox. We now have a court date. It's in 12 days.
