Hope you are having a good weekend. I'm going to visit my mom this coming week so might not have any posts. I'm afraid she'll bust my chops to even think about DBing.
Interesting developments, I guess, this weekend.
Okay, so Friday was the pursuit and hurting her feelings. Then Saturday I apologized again for saying what I did about her behavior towards my kids. She said "what brought this up all of a sudden?" Which is what she asks when she's suspicious of something. Apparently she badmouthed me to a friend in an e-mail and then accused me of reading it. Funny, all that time of snooping and when I don't she accuses me and won't accept an honest answer. Go figure.
Anyway, I was P.O.ed and didn't answer several calls last night. I ended up going to a movie and then out to a bar or two. Some fun there, but not great.
Today I pick up my X's neice to work with her on her volleyball serves. I still hang out with her family and they treat me well so it's not unusual that I'd do stuff with any or all of them. I thought niece would be a little uncomfortable with just me so I did call X who came over.
After that we all went out to brunch. Her whole family and me. She asked about this uncoming vacation of mine and if I was going camping with the boys. Essentially she said her son really wanted to go. None of this is his fault so I said if she was fine with it and her D didn't want to go also then I guess he could go. It might be weird having him at my mom's since he's not step-grandson anymore, but I guess it will be okay. What do you think?
After brunch I brought a mattress over to Xs and took a larger one back and then went and picked up a headboard with ex-FILs help. Then we went golfing. She called during the midst of that to say thanks for lunch. She called numerous times today about whether her S was going or not. First he wasn't going, then he was, then he wasn't, and I guess now he is. She also called and asked if I would look at her eye. I guess it was really sore after putting in some bad contacts or something.
I don't know. Maybe she was ok today because she wanted something. There will come a time when ex-ss will have to come to the realization that our vacations are just for us, but maybe not this summer giving all they've gone through in the last six months and because they never wanted this and still make efforts to push their mom and me together.
Well have a great week everyone. I'll check in from time to time. I'm sure you will miss my invaluable advice, but you'll just have to get Gabe to give you the best advice. Oh, and Bruce will have to take over my position as most flagrant pursuer.
Sorry Beth we didn't get that date again this weekend. We'll have to work on that later. Feel free to keep looking around and local options, but you won't find any as good as me, unless it's some of my fellow DBers. j/k (not really)
