Halloween Ex-fight

Happy Halloween!

As any divorced parent knows, holidays are bound to be filled with a few ex-fights. UGH. How I wish this wasn’t the case but unfortunately…

So last night I had a headache. Just a dull kind of ache. So we carved pumpkins and we watched Spiderman III and then I put the kids to bed and my husband and I watched License to Wed. A nice, simple night at home.

The problem?

I turned off my phone as soon as my husband got home and I plugged it into the charger. So I wasn’t bothered with any phone calls all evening and it was HEAVEN. This morning I turned on my phone and had two voicemails from the ex. The first was around six thirty and semi cordial. The second around eight o’clock was… let’s just say less than cordial.

This is the man I was married to. The one that demands and expects that it be done or else. And for nine years I was his beck and call girl. You say jump, I say yes sir, how high? Well guess what… Not anymore. Thank goodness.

I’m sure that I’ll get yelled at again when he decides to call me back but I’m not calling him. Yes, I know I’m being a baby and a brat or whatever but…urg
