It's All My Husband's Fault

  Daughter has been more or less at war with The Ex over the last few weeks.  Honestly, I can't say that I blame her even a tiny little bit.  Here's a list of just some of what Daughter has told me has happened over the last 1.5-2 months.   A few weeks ago, Daughter was telling me how she made friends with a guy up in Tiny City who she met through her aunt/The Ex's sister.  Daughter said one day, she was at her grandparents' house; her grandpa and her aunt were home, and this guy came over to hang out.  The Ex found out about it and started yelling at Daughter for "hanging out with a guy."  Daughter got upset and told The Ex that she didn't know why she was getting yelled at for being only friends with someone, but Son can sleep with whoever he wants and get people pregnant. ( Son and Girlfriend  have been "trying" to have a baby for the last 6 months.  Girlfriend said that she was "pregnant," and I use quotation marks because none of...

  Last night, Husband got a text from The Ex at 5:37pm.  She just refuses to use 2houses, I'm assuming because she knows I have access to it and wants to pretend that I don't exist.  Anyway... "I forgot to tell you that I cannot take the kids to [city name] that week. ( This is regarding a message that Husband sent to her on 2houses about the kids needing to go in for a follow-up orthodontist exam next week; he emailed her on June 18th .  She read it on June 25th .  She's texting him about it on July 11th . ) I am only off every other Thursday at noon. ( Why the hell would I care about that? ) Unfortunately on my Thursdays he's only taking new patients. Unless you can take them the week of the 22nd that you have them( Son hasn't been to our house since he graduated on June 1st.  Since when is he coming here? ), they will go on Monday, August 6th. ( Fine, whatever.  It's just a retainer check. ) ALSO, ( I don't understand the CAPS lock use here, but...

  After I blogged here  about The Ex's daughter "going to college,"  The Ex hopped on Facebook for a second time and posted more pictures.  The first post had Ned tagged and The Ex wrote: "At [event name, spelled correctly this time because it was on the picture she posted] after picking up [The Ex's daughter] from her week in [City] at school!!!"   There was one picture of Ned and her two youngest outside the event, one picture of her two kids inside the event, a picture of her and Ned standing with her kids inside the event, and finally a picture of the four of them with The Ex's friend/The Ex's daughter's godmother, her son, and her new boyfriend.  The picture of The Ex and her "family" makes me laugh because her daughter is cringe-smiling, Ned looks like he's trying to get physically close to The Ex, and The Ex has both of her hands planted firmly on her son while looking like she's trying to get away from Ned.   The second ...

  Remember last week when I blogged about Ned's post on Facebook about how he had sent his daughter ( The Ex's younger daughter ) to "college" for the week?  The nearly $2,200 camp/college/school/learning experience/whatever you want to call it?   Friday evening, The Ex posted for the first time in over a month: "[Ned first & last name], [The Ex's son] and I in [out-of-state city] picking up my smart baby princess [The Ex's daughter first & middle name]!!!! Also stopped at discount books and found dinosaur books for Little Man and volcano books for [The Ex's daughter's nickname].  Having kids is expensive... ( Yes, it is expensive when you ship them off to a $2,200 camp... ) Days still not over. [Tourist attraction] ( This was misspelled so terribly that I'm led to envision The Ex audibly sounding it out and using the closest phonetic spelling which she probably thinks is entirely correct.  But you guys, her daughter went to "...
