Just coming here to vent rather than seethe silently on the way home.
On a background of what feels like frequent changes of pick up times (always to earlier) and weekends with DD, STBX has just announced that he can't book annual leave for the week in summer he was taking DD. No surprise given he's only requesting now for August but it is so frustrating. I know this means he should be responsible for organising/paying for any childcare that week but the reality is that it still leaves me doing any rearranging if he is able to book another week off. Even more frustratingly I've only just told DD and she was excited to be spending the whole week with him. This is the first year of school holidays so at least I'll know better for next year! Gah!
