Carol's corner

I'm so crushed. I have no reason to be. I kinda knew this was the case, but it's still a punch in the gut to have it happen. All along my mil has assured me that the "family" had cut off contact with me and the kids because they can't stomach Peter's behavior anymore. I just got the email saying "um, yah, I'm taking the kids to sil x 2 birthday celebration and I'll need the extra car seat. I'll also add that my MIL has changed her phone number and I'm not privy to the new one. Directly. Cut. Off. What the hell have I ever done other than to not allow myself to be a verbal or physical punching bag? Because I stood up to the abuse and said "FUCK YOU" I'm the evil one? Why does this hurt me so?

I'm so over feeling like crap because of someone else. Let's get this right out in the open right here right now. I DID NOTHING WRONG I made my kids happy. Sorry it wasn't in the way YOU felt it should happen, but they were happy. Right up until they realized that YOU LEFT without saying goodbye. You fucking jerk. How dare you do this to them. They already think you've abandoned them, then you go and do it for real. Good job. I'm fucking done.
