I'm pretty much a psychic.
I told you all last Friday that something was coming. Now that things have been put into motion, I'll explain to all of you exactly what is/was going on.
A few weeks ago, The Ex picked up the kids from our house in a completely different vehicle. Husband and I are about 99% sure that New Guy was driving; the little stick figurines on the back window would indicate he was driving his wife's vehicle.
The next morning, The Ex was texting Daughter and telling her not to let Boyfriend leave the house. Daughter asked where The Ex was; The Ex replied that she was finishing paperwork and would be home soon. Later that evening, Daughter texted New Guy and told him that The Ex had papers that she needed New Guy to hold for her until she needed them in two weeks (Two weeks would have been last Friday.)
I initially thought that The Ex was going to serve Husband with some kind of paperwork, but I thought more about it and it didn't make sense. If she was serving Husband with paperwork, then Attorney 4 would be filling it out instead of The Ex doing it herself. She also wouldn't be at Attorney 4's office on a Saturday morning; Attorney 4 would have prepared the paperwork and The Ex would have stopped at her office on Friday afternoon before coming to our house to pick up the kids. On top of that, if it was something for Husband then The Ex wouldn't need New Guy to hold her paperwork for her; she could leave it around the house because it wouldn't matter to Boyfriend what it was.
That's when it dawned on me: The Ex was leaving Boyfriend. That's why she was secretly filling out paperwork, asking New Guy to hold it for her, and waiting for a particular weekend.
My theory was this: The Ex was going to wait for Boyfriend to leave for work, she and her family would pack up all of "her" things (Which are actually "their" things but The Ex feels she is entitled to all of it), The Ex would move up by her parents to Tiny City, and Boyfriend would come home to an empty trailer. (Did I tell you guys that they live in a trailer? I can't remember. Not that there's anything wrong with that; I have plenty of family and friends who own trailer homes. But The Ex and Boyfriend completely fit the stereotype of "trailer trash.") My theory was based on the fact that six years ago, The Ex's brother-in-law said she had planned to do this. The Ex called up her family whining about how she was tired of Boyfriend and was going to leave him, so they all formed a plan - when he left for work, they were all going to head down to New City, pack up everything that belonged to The Ex and the kids, and get her moved back to Hometown; at the last second, The Ex cancelled on everyone saying that she "couldn't afford her van without [Boyfriend]" so she wasn't going to leave him yet. (A year later they got married.)
So here's how everything has played out starting a week and a half ago:
I found out that The Ex changed the address on her insurance to her parents' address in Tiny City.
The judge signed The Ex's temporary restraining order last Friday.
Daughter butt-dialed Husband on Friday morning and left him a 5-minute voice mail, in which you can hear people moving things and packing.
So to the best of my knowledge, this is how it played out: The Ex filed a domestic abuse restraining order against Boyfriend to keep him out of the house long enough for her to pack and remove everything that she deemed "hers" or worthy of keeping. The Ex has moved in with her parents and is not going to file for divorce until she establishes residency at her parents, which will take 30 days. Once she establishes residency, she'll file for divorce and Boyfriend will be screwed because Tiny City is two hours away from New City. Both of their vehicles are in The Ex's name which means she did take or will take both of them with her; Boyfriend still has no driver's license and has no way to get to Tiny City for any hearings. The Ex will use everything against him that she previously argued was not a big deal (Multiple drunk driving charges, no driver's license, no insurance, etc.) and will try to completely remove their two children from him.
Here's what really gets me: The Ex is relocating Son and Daughter yet again, and hasn't even said a single word to Husband. She thinks we have no idea that any of this is going on; she doesn't know we have known about her affair since November, that her boyfriend is married, that she's leaving Boyfriend, that she's moving up to her parents, etc.
If/when she finally moves to Tiny City, there will be almost an extra hour of driving round-trip for every placement exchange; if she thinks we're going to make up that difference just because she can't get her life together, she has got another thing coming.

Friday night, The Ex's sister and Daughter showed up to pick up Son.
Saturday night at 9pm, The Ex sent Husband a message on 2houses and then texted him to tell him that she messaged him; she said she and the kids were at her parents' and asked if Husband wanted to pick up earlier on Sunday in New City or Another City.
Sunday at the pickup, The Ex's sister was still driving her car with Son and Daughter; they were followed by The Ex and New Guy. Husband asked who New Guy was; the kids both said he was "a friend."
Monday afternoon, I found out about the restraining order.
Monday evening, Daughter came home from school with two cards; one was for me and the other was addressed to The Ex but used her maiden name instead of Boyfriend's last name/her married name, and was addressed to The Ex's parents' house in Tiny City instead of The Ex and Boyfriend's trailer in New City.
Last night, The Ex posted something on Facebook about moving; when someone asked where she was moving to, she replied, "We're in [Tiny City]." (Not "We will be in [Tiny City]" or "We're planning on moving to [Tiny City.]" She said they are in Tiny City.)
