To want to know if my kids are going skiing or not?

[surlycurly]

So context may help here:

Every year my EXH takes the kids skiing for a week. He told me earlier this year that was his plan again. However after another phone call last week he told me he no longer plans to take them for the full week because he is too busy at work. This is clearly irritating but not the end of the world as I am off work, however I have given my au pair the week off as a result of the initial plan.

Now I text him yesterday to find out what is happening and he's ignored it not unusual as he's a useless communicator which is part of the reason I divorced him. They are supposed to leave tomorrow. AIBU to think that not letting me know if they're going skiing until the day before is a bit ridiculous? I need to pack for them appropriately and make sure they have everything they need because I know he won't and the kids will end up distressed. In addition there is the possibility he will not take them skiing at all but instead to see his new fiancé who lives abroad. I simply don't know.

Oh and I'm conscious as to how much of a non problem This will sound to many but the lack of information triggers me as I'm pretty rigid about routines and organisation.

AIBU?

Ive Just told the big one the 'plan' and she's furious that he's not organised anything yet.

And he's a workaholic and will definitely not be with the be the fiancée as she's abroad. That said it doesn't matter why he's binned the kids, he's still binned them.

Did you discover what's happening? Your poor children being messed around like that.

He still didn't know what they were doing when he picked them up. No wonder I divorced him.

How frustrating and what a twat. Just focus on making the rest of the week enjoyable for them.
