Default Wkd plans?

My kids called and asked H if they could spend the night in his new apt. He didn't want to get them until late today and I bet he won't keep them long tomorrow, but at least he's doing this. They miss him and I could use a little break.

So I am getting bedding and stuff ready for them to take a long w/ some toys to leave there.

Since he is picking them up late afternoon, I am going out right after he leaves with them to run errands and spend some time w/ my older kids who want little/nothing to do w/ him, but he won't know that.

I have a pair of tight jeans on and a plunging neckline...it is clear that I am going out. Is that bad?


What are your plans for the wkd?

Plunging neckline to go see your kids? Are you just trying to give your ex pause?

I'm going out to dinner with a friend tonight,

You go, girl! Heck yeah, dress up and shake it! Enjoy your freedom for the time you have it. I know we moms would much rather have our kids than free time, but that does not mean we cannot make GOOD use of that time when we get it!

Good for you, Mamatomany!

It is good to keep busy on the weekend, and it is good to do things that make us feel good about ourselves. I play volleyball on a Friday night league with friends...tonight, I am taking my 1 year old over to another friend's house for game night.

My stbxh has very few friends left because he treats everyone like a poo-hole. (....except his 25-yr old long distance affair partner). I live very far away from my family, so I have been relying on my friends a lot lately. I feel so blessed to have such great friends...and to know that there are people who care about me.

Have fun with your girls! You deserve it!

Heading out to see a friend, have a couple of beers and come laughs. We'll both talk about our respective relationships crap a bit... he went through a separation 15 months ago, but his involved an OM and a WW. Ouch.

Well, H picked them up and kept them 24 hrs!
He didn't seem to notice me (blouse/jeans) at all.

I did have a great time w/ my daughters. We ended up seeing a movie/dinner then buying wine and coming home and chilling until 2-3am! I posted on my daughters FB wall around 0230 that we had a great time and kept it vague I know it's manipulative but I wanted him to think that I was going to go out and enjoy myself.

I do keep in mind that my kids opinions of me matter more than anything so I won't do anything that will make me look like the bad guy here. I enjoy spending time w/ them and it was a good night. Not a lot of single guys where I went though so not much practice for eye contact / flirting... I'll have to work on that.

Mama - Glad you got to go out and have some fun. It's important to remember that you're not just a mama, you're a woman!

I am working on that
I didn't feel like a woman Saturday just a mom/daughter having a nice night out. This week I am on holiday and I noticed many guys looking at me while same daughter and I were out. I am noting what I want to change about myself and noting different prime locations of where I want to go for men

But same daughter (as above) and I would love to live in "LalaLand." We both want the same thing... BUT H has no interest as of current. I guess as long as my older kids know where I stand and what I want, I'll have to settle for that right now. We spent time last night at a couple of happy hour places talking about plan B, C, and D.

H will be missing out on much family activities if he doesn't find himself quickly and decide to be part of us. This makes me sad. My big kiddos are tired of his lame-ness.
