Oh my actual goodness, the finale.

  So to recap:  The Ex dropped off the kids late, then asked to pick them up directly from school while calling Husband childish and accusing him of wanting her to beg.  Husband said she could pick them up at 5pm in order to make it back to her daughter's concert in time.  The Ex replied by listing things she felt Husband had done wrong, called him a liar and heartless, said the kids "see through" both him and I, asked again about picking up earlier than Husband had agreed to.  Husband repeated she could pick the kids up at 5pm.  The Ex called both of us immature, whined about her daughter's concert, claimed again that Husband wanted her to beg and told him to "dream on," said Husband and I have been "jacks" to her for over nine years, and called Husband heartless a second time.  The Ex's younger sister then told Son that Husband was "being a dick" about exchange time.

  After all of this chaos, The Ex's younger sister picked up the kids sixteen minutes late.  No, I'm not kidding.  They left our house at 5:16pm, took a longer route back to Tiny City, and arrived at their sister's school at 7:07pm.  If she would have been on time, they would have made it back before the concert started.  If they had taken the correct route back rather than driving through another city unnecessarily, they would have made it back before the concert started.

  But I'm sure that somehow, this is still all my husband's fault.

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...
