It's been a tough week for me... this time of year gives me cheating flashbacks since the yearly beach vacation and our anniversary remind me of when he was cheating. *shudder*
However, I think I'm finding my footing again and my sense of humor. I sent the ex a quick reminder email about how I want him to text when they get there (it's about a nine hour drive), don't forget to pack our kids' meds, etc.
He sends back this snarky, whiny email about how he's been taking them on this vacation without me for years, he doesn't need to be reminded of everything, etc. All I could think was, "Um... sure you need reminding. You totally forgot that marriage means not sticking your floppy little member into another woman, so of course I'm afraid that you won't remember our kids' meds! You clearly have a difficult time remembering anything very important!"
I didn't write that, though, but I was sorely tempted. 
Man, I can't wait until my kids are back and no longer several states away with Dumb and Dumber!

Poor dumb doesn't like reporting in like a child
Sorry it's a bad time for flashbacks.

What an ass! I hope the time flies past because you are doing things you enjoy to keep your mind off this. I also hope all goes well for your children and they have a good time and don't feel second class.
If they have any stories to tell, I hope they involve Karma for your ex and the owifey. (((TA74)))

Gah, I hate sending the kids away with their dimwitted father! I also have to do the reminder about meds because he always forgets, but gets annoyed with my reminders.
I'm sorry it's such a tough week for you. Try to do something nice for yourself while they're gone.

Ha ha! You're a real meanie to assume he didn't know. 
They know EVERYTHING and are good at it.

Ugh! Every time you post about him, I just think that he's nothing but a pompous dipshit!! Honestly.
He is a complete hypocrite. "Good dads" who know what they're doing actually make sure that their kids have clean laundry and don't send their 5 year old daughters to school without underwear. "Good dads" actually see their kids get on the bus for the first time rather than blowing that off to watch a step kid do it. "Good dads" certainly make sure not to sign up for cheating websites so that they can stick their floppy little members into other women and leave their kids' mother to pick up all the pieces after the fall out.
I'm glad you can laugh about it. I know it's a rough time of year and that you dread him taking them on this vacation every summer. Please do something fun and good for yourself and use the time to focus on you. They will be okay and they will be home soon so that you can breathe a sigh of relief until next August rolls around for vacation with the dipshits.
