I'd love to. He said he'd mail a check for double. I said "whatever works. I'm tired of this battle. You've been saying the same thing for 6 months"
God - Checks in the mail anyone???
So now I get "it's hard I need a better job. i am just trying to make it. but you don't need to hear it"
to which I wrote the following:
I'm trying to make it too. This was your choice and she's your daughter. It's not the Rockafellers on XYZ street. I'm not angry at you for leaving. Just this and for lying about her."

If you ever want to chuckle in a sort of vomiting way...ask me toforward on the ignorant drivel my ex (the 1st one....sigh) sent me about child support
Randomly opening a Joel Osteen email that I've been pretty much avoiding as of late and here's today's :
Refuse Bitterness
Today's Scripture
“Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice” (Ephesians 4:31 NIV).
Today's Word from Joel and Victoria
Bitterness is an extremely destructive force. It seeps into the depths of your heart when you choose not to forgive someone. When you harbor unforgiveness, it closes the door to God’s working in your life. The Bible even tells us that if we choose not to forgive others, God cannot even hear our prayers. Thank God that He has empowered us to forgive and release bitterness! You have the choice to get rid of bitterness so you can live in freedom! You may have been through unfair situations, but it’s not over until God says it’s over. God always has the final say, and He is a God of justice. God sees every wrong that’s ever been done to you. He sees every unfair situation. If you will stay in faith and keep your hopes up, He will make your wrongs right. He’ll bring justice into your life. Your attitude should be, “It may have been unfair. They may have done me wrong. But I refuse to get bitter. I know my time is coming.” As you choose forgiveness and keep your thoughts focused on the Word of God, you will walk in complete freedom in every area of your life!
A Prayer for Today
Heavenly Father, today I refuse bitterness. I refuse to allow the past to keep me stuck. Right now I forgive those who have hurt me. I pray blessing on them, that they would come to know Your Truth. Father, thank You for setting my heart free today. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Yikes I am struggling with that. Bitterness is my best friend now days..so time to regroup...Have a good weekend and hang in there. Life is going to get better for all of us real soon.
So today's the day. I'm not great. Blech. I want to puke and cry.
And here's a song I've been listening to lately and thought I'd share the lyrics with you.
Jon McLaughlin - Beautiful Disaster
She loves her momma's lemonade Hates the sounds that goodbyes make She prays one day she'll find someone to need her She swears there's no difference between the lies and compliments It's all the same if everybody leaves her
And all the magazines tells her she's not good enough The pictures that she sees makes her cry
She would change everything, everything, just ask her Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster She just needs someone to take her home
She's giving boys what they want Trying to act so nonchalant Afraid to see that she's lost her direction She never stays the same for long Assuming that she'll get it wrong Perfect only in her imperfection
She's not a drama queen She doesn't wanna feel this way Only 17 and tired, yeah
She would change everything for happy ever after Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster She just needs someone to take her home
She's just the way she is But no one's told her that's okay
She would change everything, everything, just ask her Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster
She would change everything for happy ever after Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster She just needs someone to take her home She just needs someone to take her home
