Yep - I do crossfit, but lately I've been shuttling kids around and doing all of our annual dept training.
So, here's what happened tonight: --------------------------------------------- * We received some snow in NC and I told the WAS that I would take my son to gymnastics practice as I didn't want her driving in the snow. Told her to text if she needs anything due to the weather. * WAS **never** told the kids they were spending tonight with me, nor this weekend. That really pissed me off. She claims she did last weekend, kids both said she didn't. * D15 ended up with 2 ear infections and a sinus infection today. The WAS actually woke her up and told her to come to my house. She did, in tears, and locked herself in her room to sleep. I tried offering her tea, or a movie, or to go out and get her anything, but she wasn't having it. She hates being in this house. * I assembled some evidence for my lawyer. One item was a text transcript from a series of 50 iPhone msg photos of the WAS talking about the OM to an ex-boyfriend. Pretty graphic, but included them both telling their close friends about the encounter. She told an ex boyfriend of 22 years she was ending her marriage before she told me. I don't even have the words to describe how that made me feel. * S12 and I had tacos and watched TV. He started claiming he didn't want to stay over. I tried giving him the remote, asking him what he wanted to do this weekend....anything. He just said he wanted to stay over at mom's and, I yielded. He's a really smart kid and asked why I was forcing him to stay. I told him, son, you've stayed under my roof 4 times in the past 6 months. What you are doing is hurting me. I miss you.
Hugged him for about 2 mins before he walked out the door and had some tears when I shut it.
So I have a sick angry D15 under my roof and S12 is across the street. Tacos were epic and the snow is gone as quick as it came.
I'm trying not to be frustrated with my kids. I feel like they just don't want me in their lives. I do feel isolated right now in life - wife? gone. kids? mostly gone. I have my health, a house and 2 good jobs.
I think the 4 of us need to sit down and talk about how we are handling custody.
