We're about to ruin her life, again.

  The Ex has been quiet.  We haven't heard anything since the end of September when The Ex had a hissy fit because we wouldn't let her rearrange the placement schedule on her terms. I blogged about it (You can read about it here.), but the summarized version is that The Ex wanted Daughter the weekend of September 29th, asked to switch for a weekend she wasn't even in town, announced we were switching because she was going to leave Daughter here on her weekend, and adamantly refused to switch for the weekend of November 10th that Husband had offered so that The Ex could still have Daughter when she wanted.

  Volleyball is officially over for this season, which means basketball is about to start.  We haven't gotten a schedule yet from Daughter's coach so I called him the other day, asking if he had an idea of what days and times practices would be so that I could let Daughter's work know what her availability would be.

  Daughter's coach called back and left me a message saying that he'll have a schedule sometime this week, practices are for sure starting next week, and they have a scrimmage.

  The scrimmage is being held on November 10th.

  So after all of The Ex's screaming, making angry accusations against Husband, and refusing to switch weekends so she could get what she wanted, Daughter is going to have to spend at least half a day here on November 10th anyway.

  I'm bracing myself for the outpouring of hellfire that we're going to catch for a schedule that we didn't have any control over.  And the sad part is, it's not even time yet for Holiday Crazy...

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...
