I feel a bit narked she even asked Tbh, possibly I'm a cow....
We have known each other 3 years, not really a friend,just someone I know. We both work. She was part time, now full time after being unemployed for almost a year. I'm part time.
I have had her dd a few days when I've had days off, and she's had mine. Maybe 2-3 days a year.
Her husband, though they live apart ( she claims she's single parent, though they are now selling both houses to move back together) was out of work, but evidently has now found work, because I got a text ( not seen or spoken to her since before Xmas) saying he had found work and could I pick her dd up from school on Fridays and have her for a few hours.
Firstly I think that's bloody cheeky to ask, It's not even a one off, but would be something every week. Secondly I can't because dd has swimming lessons at 4:15 that day and.also Dd's dad often takes her swimming, or even picks her up from school and then dd goes to his every other weekend. So, even if I did pick up her dd, I would have to go even when I don't have to, because dd's dad is collecting her, then be stuck with this other girl, on my own, when I would be childfree.
I.said no, explained why, but feel like a cow. And now I think she's annoyed Because she didn't respond to my last text, which was asking her a question, and was in response to her text that I recieved about 3 seconds previously.
