Ugh my XH is an arse, I know that, a lot of history.
Tonight he has my DD's overnight for the first time since DD2 was born ( we were actually seperated when she was born). DD1 is almost 10, DD2 is 3 and a half.
The arrangement was for me to drop them at his at 5pm, so we get there, stuff out the car, knock the door no answer, no signal on his mobile.
I know he's in the pub (as does DD1 :(). 2 very very disappointed little girls. DD1 begs me to take them to see if he is in the pub (god cue memories of our crappy marriage). She begs me not to argue with him, and to let them stay :(
Get to pub, she goes in and comes out with him. He acts all ignorant and says arrangement was 6pm (it wasnt). I ask him if he is drunk (calmly though am inwardly so angry I could happily kill him). He says no he has had a few pints (looks like he has had more though not fall down drunk :(). DD1 is desperately pleading behind his back :(:( DD2 is just so excited.
So he says "you gonna give us a lift to mine then", so I grit my teeth and take them to his.
Am not happy, but I know his GF and their daughter (same age as DD2), will be along later and are also staying tonight (they don't live together).
Though I can't stand her, she will be a sober responsible adult.
IANBU am I???? Surely not, how much do you drink when you are looking after your DC, I stick to one glass wine max, as I am the only adult in the house. He's an arse right?? Because he acted like I was the loon, as always.
