Long time no share, and I'm sorry for being a blog hog, but I have missed you guys and just had to share this fun nugget.

Earlier today, I was talking to SO about how long SD is staying this summer, and how I'd really hoped for a break from "all this". SO thought that I meant work frustrations and mentioned 4th of July, to which I replied, "Honestly, by 'this', I meant SD." SO immediately said that he didn't need to hear anything about it, and that I needed to find other ears to vent to.

Fast forward to this evening. SD is sleeping, and SO started telling me, "It's so unfortunate that I'm paying child support for SD for the month AND paying for her while she's here." I immediately said, "I don't think I'm the person to hear about this, so you might want to find someone else to vent to."

Thanks! Sorry; I just saw these comments because I had to go out of state for a death in the family. But I appreciate the compliment! Puss is the best. Biggrin

Love your response!

btw, from a previous post on here (I believe) it was pointed out that CS is still payed during the summer or when the kids are with dad or BM or whoever because the court averages it over the whole year. So, they don't ask for more during the 9 mos that she has them or he has them, they average the whole year and spread it out over the 12 months because it's easier for the court. At least that's my understanding. You can perhaps point that out to your DH to make him feel dumb for not doing more research on his own kids' support. (I didn't know, either, but he's being a jerk so might as well get in that jab while you can)
