My head hurts.

  When Husband sends any type of communication to The Ex, he tries to make it as simple as possible.  If it gets complicated, then The Ex gets confused and in turn, confuses us with her excessive confusion.  The problem is that even when we make it as simple as possible to understand, The Ex still gets confused; then I have things to write about and you all have something new to laugh at.

  Husband told The Ex on September 22nd that he should have the order form for Daughter's school pictures within the next day and he would send it to her when he had it.  We got it the morning of September 24th, which was a Thursday; we scanned it and sent it to The Ex that afternoon.  Husband asked her to let him know by Sunday evening at the latest which pictures she would like to order.

  Monday morning, the message regarding Daughter's school pictures was still unread.  Husband sent a new message asking her to please let him know that day which pictures she would like ordered and if he did not hear from her, he would not order anything.  Husband also said that Daughter had two separate events going on the weekend of October 24th, so they could a)leave the schedule as it currently is and The Ex could bring Daughter to all of her events, b)The Ex could pick up only Son that weekend and leave Daughter here, or c)they could switch the weekends of October 24th and November 7th.  Husband asked The Ex to let him know what worked best for her.

  Friday at 10:24pm(I wish I was kidding.):
"M. Entry for $12 (It took me a few seconds to process this, when it dawned on me that The Ex was telling Husband which package she would like to order for Daughter's school pictures.  After being given two deadlines to respond, both of which were ignored, she's "ordering" pictures at almost 10:30pm on a Friday night.)
If we switch weekends. (Again, the use of a comma would have been appropriate at this point in time.  I don't understand how or why she can't/won't use a freaking comma.) I would get the next 2 weekends including Halloween weekend and the weekend after that? (Um.....what??  The next two weekends are the 10th and 17th, neither of which were mentioned.  Husband asked if she wanted to switch the weekends of October 24th and November 7th; now she's bringing up the next two weekends, Halloween, and the first weekend in November.  My brain is aching at this point trying to understand how she can take something so incredibly simple and make it so damned confusing.) Please let me know.
Thanks" (No.  Please don't thank Husband, me, or anyone else.  None of us are happy that we have to deal with your idiocy.)

  The next morning, Husband replied and told her that ordering was closed for Daughter's pictures. (Translation:  when I ask you to let me know by a certain date, there's a f*cking reason.)  Husband said the pictures could be ordered online later and when he got that information, he'd send it to her.  Husband then clarified line-by-line what the kids' weekend schedule would be if they switched, and told her to let him know what works for her. (This will probably make things worse because Husband wrote out a tentative schedule based on them switching weekends.  The Ex will probably interpret the tentative schedule as Husband "tricking" her into thinking it's the current schedule so that she'll lose time with the kids...or something.  I can't follow her anymore; my brain doesn't move that slow.)

  As of this morning, The Ex still hasn't read the message that was sent 52 hours ago.  I can't wait for the ridiculous reply she's going to send to this one...
