You are here

Weekends without SO are so relaxing....

So its Friday night, and the only reason I am sitting in front of my laptop is because I need to complete a document for a client that i promised I'd have to her by 11pm. i already have the DVD's standing next to the TV in my room. Got my snacks, and even though I've been put on bedrest AGAIN by my obstetrician today, its not so bad. The first episode (with FSS7 being deadly sick in hospital with a tooth infection *giggle*) taught me to get through it okay.

So this is SO's weekend to look after his spawn... oops I mean son. even though it was still unconfirmed until only about 4 hours ago, it does not bother me that he did not inform me of what the confirmed plans were. Tomorrow I have asked a few friends to please assist at home, and they're going to do it with love! By best friend will be here from the morning till evening (she says just-in-case those other cows don't come LOL!). it feels great having friends who clear their days to be supportive to you. The next 5.5 weeks will be challenging, but I made contingency plans to not rely on SO at all. Since I've made the decision to leave him when baby is born, this has been the most liberating experience.

No moodiness in the house for the entire weekend. let him and FSS7 reinforce their horribly dysfunctional behaviour this weekend, and sit at home being totally socially maladaptive and being mad at the world.

i so look forward to next week when i have my baby shower with all my friends Smile I just wish time could fly by now...

WOO HOO!

GG is going to a training seminar and has to stay overnight this upcoming week. He actually (get this) WANTS ME TO DRIVE OVER AN HOUR TO BE WITH HIM OVERNIGHT!!

Is he delusional or WHAT???!! I totally enjoy my time alone w/o the violent moodswings of GG to deal with. Never know from one day to a next when he'll be pouting over some perceived offense.

A weekend withOUT the SO????? What is that?!??! Maybe if NN WOULD leave me alone for a weekend now and then, I'd be able to stand him for another 10 years!

undoubtedly! Read my latest blog. I think they're afraid that we'll run away when their back is turned. And so they should be.

I am soo glad to hear that am not alone in having a SO that pouts over perceived offenses... and the mood swings.. I've got yet another pet name for him (dragon-man)... when he's pissed off he snorts like a dragon, i totally shut down when that starts up, and sometimes have to stop myself from laughing when i look at him, because i seriously wait for the puff of smoke, if not an entire flame to come out of his nostrils Smile

He text messaged me not to say 'good night my angel, I miss you and I love you, and i wish I were there"... I swear I am not going to reply and if he asks tomorrow (unless he goes psycho and calls me non-stop again because I am not reply to his texts), I'll just say "oh I'm so sorry, i dozed off". LOL!!!

LOL skylark, I prohibited him from bringing his abusive, manipulative, lying, violent demon child to my house in november last year, so when its his weekend (EOWE) to take care of FSS7, I let him parent his son at HIS house (which is about 30 miles away), not our home.

I often wondered what would have happened if he actually DID take his son for counselling, if it would have helped... But hey, NOT my kid, NOT my problem, and looking forward to not having SO (maybe I should start referring to him as IO - insignificant other) as my problem as well Smile
