Second roller coaster ride (part 3)

[Card29]

I am now starting my first attempt at planning a holiday season with two different moms with two young kids and it absolutely [censored]. W#2 proposed that she take S1 for the entire week of Thanksgiving (which includes his birthday) so she can go to Chicago where she's from. Yeah no. Not how this is going to work, that you just get to take him whenever you please. This is exponentially more complicated than when it was just D11.

Also, the calendars that were proposed by the two moms would have had D11 and S1 not seeing each other for an entire month. Also not happening. This has taken up over an hour of my morning so far. I am trying to remain emotionless in the e-mails and texts but I want to punch a hole through my monitor. I want to say thanks to W for quitting as a step mom, F'ng up like 4 different R's and 2 kids lives because "you didn't want to stick around and let things get resentful between us". Like doing this isn't going to potentially make me resentful!

I am also very tempted to tell her I know about a bunch of the lies she has told friends and family to justify her leaving. I'm more tempted now than ever. At first I thought I had just laughed them off knowing they are BS "revisionist history" that most WAS's exhibit. But they're clearly still bothering me.
