I think I may finally be learning this detaching thing! Today started with a flurry of emails from SO. Long story short - seems "something", he wouldn't tell me what, is missing from his car and he thought I took it. I didn't. I got a little PO'd because he kept going on about it. I finally told him:

"And I don't find it very amusing that I am being accused of something I didn't do. Who the hell knows who has access or goes into your car when it's not even here. Is someone setting me up for something? Someone trying to cause trouble where there shouldn't be any?

We can settle this very easily. Lock your vehicle, take your keys, do whatever you have to do to. I will not stand for any more of this type of bullsh!t. If it comes down to having to swap the kids along side the road just so you can't find something to blame on me, then so be it. "

He went to his apartment and emailed me that he was sorry for making me mad & hurt. Then he called wanting to know what time he should come over. I was actually over the whole thing by then - it ticked me off a bit, then I shrugged it off. Never said a word about it again. It's not my problem. It's his.

The afternoon was OK. We touched upon a few subjects - I have an appt for daycare tomorrow. My words to him were "It seems like things are coming together for me. The daycare lady sounds promising and *old company* may work out as well." He just looked at me and didn't say anything.

So I continued a little about the job. Told him I didn't know all the details yet, wasn't sure if it would work out for me or not (money wise). Then he said "Oh, isn't that where that guy works?" I said "What guy?" He said "In that building - that guy that wanted to go out with you? Your boyfriend" WTF?? I had to really think hard about what he was talking about - this guy he heard me talking to years ago! and replied "Oh, you're talking about Chris. He doesn't work in the building - he was someone I knew through my company. And besides, even if I have a boyfriend or 20 boyfriends it's really none of your business anymore now is it?" He just looked at me again.

I continued, "I'd like it if you could bring me a schedule Saturday for when you want the girls for the next 2 months or so." He asked why. I said "So there isn't any misunderstandings and so I can make my plans accordingly for the things that I want to do." He asked "What things?" I said "Well, working and being a mom isn't all that I'm about - I really need to Get a life!" He didn't seem to happy with this either, lol. Just kind of sat there and looked at me. I got up and made myself busy in the kitchen.

He called a little while ago and spoke with D7, then asked for me. I was actually on another call with my FL friend and told him, so I cut it short - telling him to have a good night and clicked back over to her.

There was something else, too that I had absolutely no reaction to, but I can't remember right now what it was. It seems like it was important to my whole detaching thing, but I just can't remember.
