Could this be good news???

So BM and I finally came to a conclusion that we will start working together on not getting each other upset. I've laid our expectations down and hers too. Now that we both know how each of us feel and know the expectations, can this be good news moving forward? I hope so, we are tired of all the arguments and disagreements, most importantly misunderstanding. I found out that a lot of her perception about us are all false and I was glad to lay it on the table & tell her that its all false and shedded some light for her to understand our feelings and views about things.

Frustration...

Since I've made my choice to leave, I've experienced a rollarcoaster of emotions. I go from HATING SBTX, to feeling sorry for him. I pity him yet I am angry at him for not taking responsibility for himself. I am exhausted by these feelings and I just want it all to end.

It's about to hit the fan

I do not believe this. I just got our file from the attorney who quit our case due to the BM's constant harrassment of him. He's an attorney, you would think he knows how to put a stop to that. But that's another story. Apparently he has been with-holding info form us. The BM has recently stated in her petition that I am abusive to the SS's, that I retain the children from school, that I lock them in closets for days on end and feed them insects and dirty toilet water!!!!! WTF????

I'm not cut out for this

This whole SM thing. I am about to ship both of these boys off to a private school where hopefull they will teach them some manners and give them a dose og reality. Yesterday evening, SS8 decided he was going to go outside without telling me. I seen him go but I dealing with a screaming teething 9 month old. So as I was taking care of my BS, my SS apparently decides this is his oppurtunity to do as pleases. I finally get done with BS and go look for SS. He is in the back yard with his pants and underwear down around his ankles. The neighborhood we live in very populated.

How do you handle it when the BD steps out of SD's life little by little breaking little one heart?

If you have read my profile I have a 6 year old SD and over the last few months her father has been slowly fading out of her life. He makes many promises to her such as taking to her to places where they can spend some alone time. Yet when the time comes he takes her to friends or relatives and then spends little time with her as to even just drop her off and tells her that he has to go to work.

SS's conversations with BM have begun to change

I've noticed that SS's attitude about BM's phone calls and the things that he says when he talks to her have undergone a pretty substantial change. A year ago, when BM would call (15 times) during BF and SS's visitation, their conversations would consist of her doing all the talking and him agreeing to whatever she said to get her to leave him alone. He would answer the phone cheerfully but get off the phone somewhat down. After about 15 minutes, he would be back to his normal self.

eight years and counting

i have been with dh for eight years now and i am the proud sm of 10-year-old cassie. her mother is crazy and until last year, did everything in her power to keep us out of cassie's life. we got joint custody last june and since then have maintained regular visitation. her mother has tried still to keep us away, but thankfully we have an intelligent judge overseeing our case. she has accused my dh of domestic abuse (which was dismissed), she filed a temp. epo so dh couldn't get his daughter (also dismissed and we were awarded an extra weekend).

He actually had the nerve to say "Go the hell" to me...

The good news..the elopement plans are starting to come along and we will be Mr. and Mrs on 07/07/07. Plane tickets are bought, miniser and photographer worked out. Now need to know if anyone out there are step talk no of a pretty location between Colorado Springs and Denver, such as a state park where we can hold the outdoor 20 minute ceremony? We haven't been really crazy about the couple of locations the photographer has suggested. The reason we wanted a state park or National Park is because the cost is minimal and with nine children between us we really need to watch those.
