X emailed today to say he’s going out of state for a month on Monday. No mention of this prior to now. Very odd as we are currently in a new lockdown and travel is heavily restricted at the moment. Unusual behaviour for him as far as known habits of work or leisure. He’s going to miss S2’s birthday.
He has organised XMIL to care for S2 on his next Sunday visit, but wants me to drive 30 minutes to XSIL’s house to drop him off because they’ll be too busy preparing for X-niece’s birthday party to pick him up. Am I wrong, or does that sound like a ‘them’ problem?
