She says it's over - Part 23

[DadNotQuitting]

Damn thread locked - and y'all were in mid-bash!

Let me TRY to make a few things a bit clearer, if that's possible. I am so f'n stressed out this last week that I can't even stand being around myself. Because of my wife stealing our money earlier this year, it has been a major uphill battle catching up. Looooooooong story short, we stand to lose about a half million dollars on an investment unless I get things taken care of quickly and effectively. I've had to hire another attorney (I now have four attorneys in my life) to assist me on this, and I think I've about got it wrapped up. Problem is, my wife has actually helped the "other side" by giving them some information that impedes what I'm working on. Half of this damn money is hers, and she's working against me!!! So yes, I'm under more stress that maybe I have ever endured.

I called W this morning to try to get her to discuss the matter with me. I need about two minutes of her time. And yes, I did contact her attorney yesterday first, and he has been absolutely no help. So, I called her this morning. I got two words in and she hung up. I called back from a different number an hour later - she said F U, and if I call again she'll call the police. For what? I have every right in the world to call her, but if she's going to act this way, then God help her. What a mess, and she is doing nothing to help and everything to hurt.

Got a call from a friend today that used to be W's friend. They'll probably never speak again...... She tells me that W's car was stolen last night. W moved out of our big home yesterday, and from what I can gather, her car was stolen while parked in front of her home and down the street a bit.

So the kids sometimes-babysitter dropped them off to me at the grocery store drop off point. I received a call from W's attorney's secretary an hour before, informing me to be there as opposed to picking them up at school. Seems they were up 'til midnight last night, and because she didn't have a car this morning, they didn't get to school Ummm, I live all of a mile from her. She is so ......whatever..... that she cannot even find a way to get them to school. So unexpectedly, D, the babysitter that I used to confide in (haven't talked to her in over a month, by choice) pulls up next to me, gets out of her car, and begins to rip into me with every dirty word you can imagine. W told her that the car is uninsured (completely not true), and that I'm an a-hole for not giving wife $$$ to feed my kids. The kids were in her car, but only two feet away and they heard all of this. What a b****!

I called W an hour later because I wanted to tell her that under no circumstance would I drop off my kids with this woman this evening when they are to go back. Got two words in, and she hangs up. Very mature. I sent her a text message saying that she would have to make other arrangements since I won't drop them off with D. I got a voicemail from her attorney's office a bit later saying that W would be there personally because I said I wasn't returning the children. Whatever..... She cannot even call me to communicate any of this and has to run it all through the attorney. I cannot wait to get all of this in front of the co-parent counselor next week and a child custody evaluator.

BTW, with regards to not giving her money for the kids. I have given her several "gift cards" from the grocery store she shops at, including about ten days ago. Not once have I received any gratitude. In fact, it seems that latest one I gave her didn't have enough cash loaded on it so she screached to the kids "that's all! I'd rather have nothing". Be careful what you ask for.

Hell of a day.
