I have worked my A$$ off, staying the stable one, putting in OT, watching H jump from job to job. I get NOTHING.
Sue, hon, take the long view on this one. (Note, I'm making some assumptions here and don't really know beans about this....) When the D comes around, would you rather have H's child support payment calculated based upon the money he was making previously, or on the money he is currently making?

Now THIS is wonderful! I'm so happy to see you treating yourself - you deserve it, and this shows a nice positive direction in your attitude. Good for you!

Wow, your BIL sure sounds like a "piece of work" to me! I am really glad that the two of you have each other in your corners. Hang in there, both of you!
