Another Fun event with a fly in my ointment
Quickie vent here. So Husband gets a request last night (Friday) at school pick up drop off from SD15 B/M asking if she can get a ride to an event this afternoon(Saturday).
This event is HUGE, its the biggest free music/art festival of the entire year. An entire small city has all the streets blocked off. There will be a big tribute to a local musician who passed away last year, a friend of ours. This is our skid-free weekend. I bought us tickets to a concert afterwards.
And now we have the kiddo-leash and have to coordinate to be around Toxic Troll and her sister Crazy Troll. Because TT has a 2 seater and cant take Backstabber, and backstabber is bored staying in the grungy apartment all the time, momee doesnt take her anywhere. I got a bit upset, and husband claims that backstabber will not be with us, she will be with her mother, all she needs is a ride. Yeah right, backstabber is going to be stuck to him like a bloated tick, because thats how she is. And he will have to make sure that she is taken care of because he is the parent. Which I as the stepparent must "understand". Typically before school-gate, I would be HAPPY to have "family time" with Backstabber-formerly-known-as-munchkin SD15. But backstabber ruined that gig.
And all this because Toxic Troll is giving her sister a ride there (its 45 minutes away), and then how is backstabber getting home? Flying? We are going straight from event to the concert because its too far to drive there and back, but SUPPOSEDLY Crazy Troll will somehow find a ride back home and Backstabber will go with momee.
And I know that someone will be drinking and not able to take kiddo home and we will be stuck again. Im taking bets on this right now if interested.
ADD to all this wonderfullness Backstabber was in her room screaming in this really super odd low growly tone. Husband left to do errands. I called him in a panic. Supposedly it was out of frustration with a video game. Yeah right. I told him I am super not comfortable with him leaving me alone with his kid.
I just want to enjoy the day and enjoy being with my friends!

I know you won't do this, but tell DH you will be going with a friend to the festival and then to the concert. He can get his own ticket for himself and SD15 and deal with her transportation.
We went our way she went hers
All is well in the world! And I lost the bet.
