Ss13 is at his first of three two-week visits with BM or the summer. As suspected, she is working daily, for at least a few hours. When DH and her finalized custody, she stated she was only working 5 hour a week and DH was between jobs so no support was awarded (she asked for spousal and he asked or cs since he is primary).

I just went back to the previous blog (124 new comments) and it is such a timely topic for me - but for me, the topic really isn't such a big deal.

They will only be travelling during the month of July so that the boys/families get a taste of what it will be like and then they will ultimately play in a Fall league with neighboring cities in a less than 10 mile radius.

So exH has said the following for excuses:

I just discovered a 7 am text from BM to DH last Sunday that read, "Tell your girl to be nice to our son". As usual DH didn't bother responding. He also didn't mention it to me as he probably didn't want me to respond or get upset either.

But here are a few of the things I'd like to say.
