Gonna have to shoot you a big "nope" on that one.
Friday morning, Husband went on break and found he had a new voice mail:
"Hi [Husband], this is [mediator's name] from [our county] Family Court Counseling. Um, I know that you had responded to my April 3rd letter saying that- um, from your perspective, that nothing more was needed in regards to your son and um, changing the order because he was gonna be graduating. And, um, [The Ex] had responded. And basically she said, she's good with that- with that child, but she's not okay with your daughter. Um, I believe that's [Daughter]. And so she wanted to do mediation in regards to that. Um, also in regards to the transportation. I think with [Daughter] it has to do with the Mondays that you are- um, as far as like her summertime placement and those Mondays. Um, again as well as the transporting. Um, so I just wanted to get you scheduled for that session. I'm looking at the afternoon of Monday, May 21st. Like, at 1 o'clock. Um, otherwise I have all day on May 22nd open. Um, so you could pick your time. Um...and, the- potentially an afternoon appointment on May 24th, which is Thursday. So if you could get back to me, I'm at [phone number]. Thank you."
I'm getting wound up just thinking about it again, but of course, this is part of the insanity that comes with a crazy ex-wife. I called Our Attorney who agreed this is just nonsense. You all know how I love to break this stuff down, so let's have at it.
1. The Ex filed a motion for placement of Son. That's it. In fact, her motion specifically stated she was asking the court to change the order regarding who Son lived with, and she did not want to change the order for Daughter.
2. Daughter doesn't want to spend more time there. Daughter doesn't want to get picked up on Sunday instead of Monday. Daughter would rather spend the entire summer here with us and her friends, not babysitting and being bored out of her mind in Tiny City.
3. Transportation?! Ohhhhh, HELL no. We agreed three years ago that The Ex won't pay child support in exchange for her doing the transportation. She moved away, we didn't. We've been doing just wonderfully with no child support and we have no desire to change the order.
And you want to hear something that is so funny it's sad? I said exactly this to my friends less than three weeks ago: "I'm sure [The Ex] will still want to go to mediation just to be alone with [Husband]." Gross. I don't even know why I say this stuff...
