Contacts and school supplies

  Husband got Son contacts, scanned the receipts and emailed them to The Ex.  Husband also asked what The Ex wanted to do about practices the following week, reminding The Ex that if Son missed any practices he would not get playing time.  The next day, Husband emailed Son's football schedule and a receipt for school supplies with a breakdown of costs and what The Ex owed for them (We literally went through all the barcodes on the supplies, highlighted on the receipt which ones were Son or Daughter's supplies against which ones were Baby Girl's supplies, added it up, figured out what the percentage was that The Ex owed and gave her the total.)  The Ex did not reply.  Five days later, Husband sent another email about Son's football practice.

  Three days after the football practice email, The Ex emails back about school supplies.  The Ex says that when school ended this past year, they had agreed to do school supply shopping together (Um, no.)  The Ex says that same day, she told Husband that she already had supplies for the kids (She never said that) so they wouldn't need to buy much (You haven't bought school supplies for Son or Daughter in the past five years.  How would you know how much we need to buy?)  The Ex writes, "You said that was fine and you would like to do the school shopping together." (BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!)  The Ex repeats she already has "stuff" for Son and Daughter which they'll be bringing home before school starts; she says, "You will just have to take back the school supplies you have and minus what I owe you." (Like hell I will.)

  The Ex continues in her email, saying she has never gotten a school supply list from Husband and that Husband wants "to have me pay for things I don't know if the kids need or don't need them." (This is why I love email.  The Ex is too stupid to think through what she's lying about.  In the same email, she says she bought supplies; a paragraph later, she says she doesn't know what the kids need for school.)  Now, The Ex accuses us of having her pay for Baby Girl's school supplies (We already saw this coming, which was precisely why we went through all of the barcodes and marked off which ones were Son's, Daughter's or Baby Girl's.  How pathetic is it that we already knew she was going to make this argument?)  The Ex then asks Husband to send her a school supply list or give it to Son when he came home that night. (Now she wants a list?  Now??  School is starting in two weeks, why are you suddenly hung up on having a supply list?)

  Ten minutes later, The Ex emails again and says that her supervisor told her if she "needed to leave early for any thing (Like when The Ex insisted on having Daughter come home on Sunday when she had a baseball game on Tuesday.  The Ex was supposed to work Tuesday but had to leave early to bring Daughter to her game) she would have to have that day off."  The Ex complains about not being able to make ends meet even though she's working five days a week (Then go get a full-time job.  Or sell one of your two cars that you're desperately clinging to)  The Ex tells Husband what she would like done for Son's football practices next week, then says that she and her parents want to make plans the last week before school starts, so Son will be missing football that week and she will notify his coach (Not even close, but nice try)

  Husband replies to both in one email.  Husband says no, they did not agree to do supply shopping together (Not to mention he never once said he "would like to do the shopping together."  Is she really this crazy?)  Husband points out they can't plan a shopping trip together because she still won't give him her work schedule (After asking for the last two months) Husband says that The Ex never said she had any supplies for the kids and if she wants him to deduct anything, she will have to produce receipts showing what was purchased and when (Like the court order clearly states).  Husband tells The Ex that if she wanted a supply list, she could have asked him or visited the school website instead of waiting two weeks before school starts and then demanding to see a list.  Husband tells her that she is not paying for Baby Girl's supplies, points out that the school supplies for this year are half of what they were last year because we only bought what Son and Daughter needed (You know how much The Ex owed for supplies?  Less than TWENTY-ONE DOLLARS.  We're really going to go far with that.)  Husband also points out that he doesn't know how The Ex bought supplies for the kids if she didn't have a list.

  Husband closes the email by saying that Son will not be missing any football practices;  The Ex agreed to him playing football and the court order says she will facilitate extracurricular activities.  Husband points out that The Ex has every other weekend in the summer and three weekends a month during the school year to make plans with her parents.  Husband says that if The Ex forces Son to miss his practices which will result in loss of playing time, he will file for contempt of court against her.

  The next day, Husband emailed the supply list like The Ex had asked for.  Husband also asked what she wanted to do about Son's practice the next week and offered to pick Son up on Sunday night or Monday morning.  Husband later sent a second email with receipts for Son's contacts, showing that Son's prescription changed so he was going to need new eye wear (So it was either a)get him the contacts he wanted or b)buy him new glasses and hope they didn't get broken during football.  It's not that hard to figure out)

  The Ex waits six days, then decides to email Husband back at 10:35pm on Sunday to say she appreciates him asking to pick up Son.  "Where have you been all these years.  Thank You!" (Omg, honestly?)  The Ex says Husband can pick up Son at noon on Monday, and she would like to drop off Daughter on Thursday instead of Wednesday and use one of her make up days for this.  The Ex says, "Not sure exactly were (*where) [Son] plays or how to get there, so I would need an address to go by." (This part is classic; read below to see why.)

  Husband replies, says he can't pick up Son at noon because he has an appointment on Monday so the latest he can pick him up is 11am; if this is okay, to let Husband know by 8am on Monday.  Husband says if The Ex wants to use one of her make up days, then he agrees to her bringing Daughter back at 5pm on Thursday (Which is the court-ordered exchange time)  Husband says that Son's game is at home, like the schedule stated; Husband tells The Ex that the schedule stated the address but gives it to her again (Did she even read the schedule?)

  The Ex emails back and says 11am will be fine.  Then she adds, "You do know [Son's] game starts at 6pm. What is one more hour." (One more hour means you're an hour late for placement exchange.  Also, if you know the game starts at 6pm then you clearly read the schedule which had the address printed on it, yet you still emailed your ex-husband saying you didn't know where the game was and needed an address.  You are a full-on idiot.)
