She is te-hair-ible.

  You guys, I am really sorry.  I thought I had told you about The Ex's hair in the past.  Apparently, I did not do that.

  She has nice hair.  In fact, I would be quite envious of her hair if she didn't style it the way that she does.  She's had the same "go to" style (if you can call what she does a "style") since before she and Husband got together.  Husband's family will occasionally ask me if The Ex "still does her hair like that."

  Her hair is naturally curly, but then....I'm not sure what she does to it, exactly.  The curliness is good, I think whatever she is doing there is okay.  But oh my word...the worst part...

  She has bangs cut, straightens and curls them at angles that defy gravity, and then sprays them down with what is probably close to fourteen cans of hairspray.  Honestly, I want to touch them just to see if they break off in my hand.

  Son was once mocking her by holding his hands at his forehead and hopping around like a rabbit.  Daughter said she's told The Ex to her face that she needs to stop doing what she does to her bangs.  It's all pointless.  The Ex thinks this looks good.

  I've uploaded two recent pictures of her.  They are unedited, save for the added sticker to conceal her identity and the coloring to block out other people in the photo.  I didn't do anything to retouch, modify, or change her hair.  She does it like this, every single day.

  I've taken to referring to them as her antennae.  I'm not sorry about it, either.

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...
