There has to be some form of recourse for this - I think DH should file contempt charges against her = this is the second time she has not taken her week of custody since the court gave her back her 50% (every other week). I am really getting tired of this - I had to go stock the house full of groceries - SD is here at least three weeks in a row - no peace for me - my mother is forced to watch her after school for three weeks in a row (at least) no break for her.
DH met with the GAL and the bioytch today. DH said he felt like he was in an ambush. I told him that BM is very good at making herself look good and him look bad. The GAL actually asked him if he didn't like her....he actually stated yes. The GAL stated that he had to get over his issues with her.
The GAL wants to recommending to split the kids. SS14 with BM, SS13 with DH and the youngest one with ADHD SS11 split 1 week on 1 week off. When DH asked how is the good for him when he needs consistancy, the GAL stated then she could recommend him stay where he is(with BM)
SD13 told us this weekend that she wants to go back and live with BM next school year. BM remarried and SF has a criminal record. SF has two felony convictions for Domestic Violence with Child. Meaning that there was violence to or in front of his children. He has a no contact order against him. Neither he nor a member of his family can come within 1000 feet of his ex wife or their children. We have requested copies of the police reports to show her. BM told SD13 that SF has had legal issues but it was because his ex wife lied just to get him in trouble.
Ok, so we didn't end up tell SD about the baby 3 weeks ago. We missed our last visit last weekend b/c H had to work all weekend. This was the first visit we ever had to cancel in the 5 years we have been together, but was much needed for me. We planned on getting SD for Easter weekend, but BM "forgot" to tell us they had an egg hunt to go to- therefore H would have only gotten SD for 24 hours. Not a big deal to H (surprised me)- we will just wait for our regular scheduled EOW this weekend.
what would your relationship be like? I'm not talking about whether skids lived w/BM instead, I'm referring to if your SO didn't ever have kids prior to you. I think I fall into the trap of thinking that if DH hadn't ever had kids prior to me that our relationship would be a lot simpler. No BM drama, No guilt parenting, not feeling like I'm last among his endless list of priorities, perhaps even being able to schedule myself and BD around what we want to do instead of catering to Skids whims.
Since we don't have any small children in the house and yesterday was so nice I decided to have a little fun. When I was working as a waitress I had to buy several white blouses, don't know why they wanted us to wear white. Anyway I don't like to wear white myself, gets too dirty, and I'm too cheap to throw them away. I have about a dozen huge margarine buckets that we used at the restaurant. So there I was bored and looking for something to do when it hit me, I have the buckets and blouses that I would like to wear so I decided I'd dye them.
My husband and I got word today that BM signed the settlement papers and the new custody arrangement will start Friday. This is great for us and for the kids so I am very excited. The part that gets me is that BM also went in to give birth to her 4th child by 3rd different father. Im sure its not a conincidence at all. This woman has dragged us through thousands and thousands of dollars in legal fees and NOW all the sudden, when she finds herself stuck with another kid that she cant take care of, she settles!
As some of you may have read, FH recently proposed. OSD is ecstatic, and is after to me to hurry up and plan the wedding. SS is happy with it. Well, they went to their moms right after the dinner for their EOW. YSD, when she got back from BM's, turned to me while the other two were debating where the honeymoon should be and said that if I marry her daddy, she was going to move in with mama. I looked at her, laughed, and said "OKAY!! Let's go pack.
BM has raised her head again! Zippy's bio mom is back! DH had to drop Zippy off at his mothers this weekend BECAUSE BM's psycho boyfriend slashed her tires :?
DH comes back home and says "My goodness X Fruitloop looks like she is 70 years old (she is actually 56)and is walking with a cane (he has not seen her in two years)-anyway she starts telling him the latest drama (complete with violent drunken BF -cops and tire slashings) and he exits as fast as he can back to the house.
I need to get your thoughts on this one.
FH has all the numbers for his ex's family still in his phone. Now they were separated 5 years and he got this new phone 3 years into it but somehow managed to get their numbers into his phone. (Hmmmm why's that? Not over them much?)
