This. This is what we have to put up with.

  I realized last night that if stupidity came in layers, The Ex would be an onion.

  For those who are just joining in, Husband had sent a change request to The Ex through 2houses back in November.  2houses sends the other parent an email any time a change or request is made.  I did not realize until last night that the parent sending the request can see a copy of exactly what is sent to the other parent.

  These screenshots are identical to what The Ex saw when she opened her email.  I did not know until last night that the email included "Accept" and "Decline" buttons; you simply have to click one or the other, and I assume that the requesting parent would be notified of your choice.

  The Ex did not utilize either of the buttons.  Instead, she logged into the website and sent this:


  A friend of mine speculated that perhaps The Ex was confused because she didn't know which weekend was supposed to be hers.  I thought that was a good explanation until I went back and re-read her message, in which she clearly stated that the weekend of December 12th was Husband's weekend.

  So to summarize:
     The Ex knew her weekend was December 6th.
     The Ex knew Husband's weekend was December 13th.
     Husband asked to switch those two specific weekends.
     The Ex didn't understand what Husband wanted.

If it walks like a duck....

  I could have told you a long time ago that The Ex is only claiming that Son has depression because it draws more attention to her and she thinks it will convince the court to grant her placement.  However, all of her actions prove that she's not actually concerned at all about Son; if he actually had depression, there's no way he'd be better off with her because she doesn't even pay attention to him right now.   A little over a week ago, Husband emailed The Ex saying that Son told us that she is telling him he is depressed and needs to be on medication.  Husband said that Son is not exhibiting any signs of depression and gave specific examples of how/why; he also said that since The Ex had a concern, he would schedule a doctor's appointment for Son and let her know when it is so that she could attend if she would like.   It took The Ex four days to respond. ( If you honestly thought your kid was depressed, wouldn't you be checking up on them a bit more fre...

Voicemails from 2012

  Sometime in mid-January:      “It’s [The Ex], I just wanted to talk to the kids. Can you please have them call me? Thanks.”   An hour and forty-nine minutes later:      “Hey [Husband], it’s [The Ex]. I called about two hours ago, if not a little more, to talk to the kids. Um, still waiting for you to have them call me back. Bye.” ( It was Family Night.  We didn't have our phones and she knew this. )   Early February:      “Hey [Husband], it’s [The Ex]. Wanted to talk to the kids, if you can have them return my call. Um...I know you say 5 o’clock is the best time to call so...I was hoping to catch ‘em. Have ‘em give me a call. Bye.”  ( Husband never said this.  Our schedule had been the same since 2009; the kids and I didn't get home until around 5:30pm.  The Ex even left a voicemail in 2010 saying that Husband had told her the kids get home at 5:30pm.  But now magically, Husband...

Must be awfully icy in Hell right now.

   Son & Girlfriend recently had a party for Granddaughter's second birthday.  Girlfriend created a Facebook event and invited all of their guests.  The Ex never responded one way or the other; given that Grandson is 3 years old and The Ex has attended his very first birthday party but not the others, I didn't know if she was going to attend or not.   About 2 weeks before the party, The Ex had planned a couples' weekend and invited her best friend, the best friend's boyfriend, and also Daughter and her new boyfriend.  The friend ended up backing out but Daughter and her boyfriend went.  Daughter said she also pre-warned her boyfriend that Ned is extremely awkward, that he had a staring problem, and that he's a terrible driver; her boyfriend later told her that he thought she was kidding about all of it but she was, in fact, warning him about the truth.  Apparently, Ned will just stare right at you and not say a single word; if you look back at...
