As you all know from recent posts, my emotions today have been on a roller coaster. Well, I went down to get my mail, and there was a letter from skids for us. I was surprised, they don't usually write. I opened the letters, there were 2 inside, one from SD, it was a cute , happy note. Just her style Smile and one from SS, thats the one that got me!

Chava, please.......

Even if you dont feel like writing, please let us know you are still out there. I have been where you are now, in the dark, I'm not going to say "I know how you feel" as we are not the same person, we have different emotions. But I do know how it feels to hurt. To have your own world swallow you whole, until nothing is left but the darkness. Please see your way through. Please give a "I'm ok." to us, you don't have to say anything more. My prayers are with you and your son. Chel.

Why does bad news always follow the good news for me???

Hi everyone. Ok, good news first: as I have posted in the past, I live in a shelter/apartment in a crummy area of mass. My husband and I have been working hard to save $$, it's hard when you only get half your check, and we have a baby, but anyways we have been doing what we need to. And we assist our case worker in looking for public housing, that is more stable than a shelter. I was also preparing to go to school to get my diploma in child care. I used to work in that field before I had kids, and need to go back to school to move ahead w/ my education, the state will pay my tuition.

It's Hard to Walk with a Foot in Your Mouth.!

Hi all. Thinking I may be addressing issues about my skids w/ my DH the wrong way. Twice now my responsise have upset him on things involving his kids. First off, we just got a "home" phone in our apartment, we only had a cell phone before, and now we get free L.D. calls,so we don't use up all our min. on our cell phone, that happens often.My 2 kids live in TX., and I 'm in Mass., they call me alot, and now it's nice not to have to worry about the min. or how often they call.

Coming in Second...

Just trying to look on the bright side in light of the holiday weekend. Let's take a moment, forget about the kids , skids, and think about how lucky we sometimes are to be the 2'd wife in this "race" of married life. I know....what's so lucky about it right. I used to hate it myself. Being 2'd to anyone is not my life's ambition either. But recently I have started looking at it in a different way. I used to hate conversations with my DH, about his EX. Hearing all the "stories", you know, Now I use them as lessons on "what not to do".

So, Do you???

This is a pretty wild thought to me, so I had to post about it. Was at the store, and was glancing at the magazines in the check-out, u know the "Brittney Shrine", and on the cover of Oprah, was a question that Dr. Phil was covering.."Do you miss your EX"?. and I was like ,wow, what a question. I did not get the mag., but did not know if anyone here has read it?? I could safely say "no" myself, I don't "miss" him in the sense of being with him, but there are moments ,sometimes, that I remember, he does have some good qualities that will be missed. (yeah, I said that out loud...:).

Off Topic, but it still feels wrong.

He works with a "woman" who looks old enough to be his mommy, and supposivly is a "REBORN" christian,cant do her job, and it ,seems like.. latley she cannot go anywhere without him, when it comes to "work errands". They work in a f-kn soup kitchen.... he has only been there 4 weeks, and all of a sudden he goes everywhere, more than i even knew about, with this person???

Hi, everyone...I wrote earlier this week about BM calling a hearing over CS issues, again, and we are out of state and could not make it. I recieved alot of very good advice here on what to do, and was in the middle of communicating with the state of FL. trying to request a telephonic hearing, and to petition the court on the long shot of modifying CS. again, when yesterday, my DH got a notice at work that he is now under an income deduction order for the CS $$ , so now BM. will be sure to get a check every week.

w.t.f., w.t.F...W.T.F.!!!!

B.M..... again is calling another hearing, over C.S. issues, the amount she is supposed to get is way to much for us to afford to cough up, we cannot modify it , because we were told we would have to wait 4 years for another modification....seriously! So of course over the past few months we are behind on what we owe, so she is pissed and called another hearing..2 weeks from now in FL. & we are living in Mass. and can't get down their for this BS. no time or $$$ for a trip like that. And it says on the notice if my DH. is not there they will issue a warrent!! He called this am.

My Future Depends on This.....

My DH & I moved away from FL. to Mass, with our baby....his EX lives in Fl. with his 2 teen kids, for the sake of our sanity & safety we had to move, we had exausted all other avenues, and my family, and some of DH's family live up here, this was our hometown. So far things have been pretty peaceful, it will be great to raise our son up here. We have blocked communication with the EX, but I dread dealing with "visitation time", when his kids are going to come. She expects us to pay for all their travel tickets....we plan on telling her she can deduct some of it out of C.S.
