Of course she is.

  I'm so sorry for not updating more frequently, but....The Ex has gone completely silent.  She has gone for over a full month without logging into 2houses; if Husband emails her, she reads it and ignores him.  She will send a text every now and again, but that's about it.

  She hasn't made it to a single basketball game of Daughter's this year but I've heard she's coming for Parents' Night.  It irritates me to a certain extent but it also makes me laugh; she thinks she's "proving" something by showing up for that one night, letting everyone see that Daughter is her child.  In reality, everyone is probably wondering who she is and why she's never around.  The last few times it's been Parents' Night, they just announce Daughter and then announce Husband and I as her parents; the one time she showed up, Daughter made sure to tell them to announce all 3 of us because you know there would be all sorts of hell to pay if we didn't acknowledge the woman who donated an egg to her creation and deemed that to be enough "parenting."

      I'm not sure if it's surprisingly...unsurprisingly....? Anyway...no, she did not show up for Parent's Night. Her parents came to pick up Daughter that evening. They announced Husband and I as her parents; no mention of The Ex, which I'm sure that The Ex's mom complained to Daughter and/or The Ex about it.

      Daughter told us that she had asked The Ex earlier if she was coming that night, and her response was something along the lines of, "I have to work. You should have told me earlier." Husband gave her the schedule at the beginning of November and even put that particular event on the calendar, but it's Daughter's fault for "not telling her earlier."

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...
