Happy Mother's Day...or not
Back on March 9th, Husband sent a message to The Ex letting her know that Daughter wanted to be in the school play. The Ex never responded, positively or negatively. On March 19th, Husband updated the calendar to reflect that the school play would be on May 8th & 9th.
Last night, The Ex sends Husband a message:
"[Husband], (The website clearly indicates at the beginning of the message that it is being sent from The Ex to Husband. There is no reason to write his name. I'm beginning to suspect that someone is writing this for her and she is merely copy-and-pasting the text.)
Do you think it's possible that we switch the weekend (I don't know why but the construction of this sentence bothers me.) of May 8th; due to [Daughters] class play. (1)That is not the proper use of a semi-colon, 2)you should have used an apostrophe in "Daughter's", and 3)it is not a "class play" when the entire school is involved.) Driving up 2 days in a row will be too much for me. (Seventeen days ago, she drove up two days in a row; it wasn't "too much for her" then. But of course, she was closer because she still lived in New City back then. Now it's almost a 2-hour drive one way.) Do you want to switch the weekend of May 1st? (She doesn't say, "Could I pick up both kids on Saturday after Daughter's play?" No, we need to switch the whole weekend because it's "too much" for her.)
Please let me know. Thanks" (It has literally been an entire month since she was given the dates of the play. Now she wants to switch weekends because it doesn't work for her.)
Husband replied and said he could switch the weekends of the 8th and the 15th, and to please let him know if that would work. About an hour after sending it, we checked the website; The Ex had read the message.
So now we wait for a answer to the question that she posed in the first place.
