turns out OW is engaged to someone else (her aol profile said she was, and it freaked me out). H still spent the night drinking gallons of scotch with her, and is all sick now (it's 5pm), but i told him he can come home and deal with the kids. it's mother's day, and i want my break!<BR>i started arguing on the phone with him, but stopped before i got really vitriolic, so i hope not too much damage is done.<BR>he's ruined all my other special days, so what's new? <BR>ok, im feeling much better. sorry about the barrage of posts, this was the only thing to keep me busy (though my best friend just called and told me she's been having a barbeque all day, and why didn't i answer the phone earlier?)<BR>ok, i need to go function in the real world, and thanks to all of you who praised my kids (the prettiest flowers always grow over the septic tank, right?), i hope i'm not screwing up their lives forever.<BR>I told him i was taking them to texas with me, and it got it all mad. but i did not mean it. hearing that he spent the night at OW's house just tipped me over the edge. i would not take his children from him, and ive told him that more times than ive threatened to leave, so i hope he believes it. <BR>sigh.<BR>thanks to all of you who put up with me this weekend,<BR>julie
