Let me ask you this. When husband first left he took all of the money with him. Oh I had my paycheck but I was using it to pay for my kids daily expenses. My lawyer filed a petion with the court for husband to pay the retainer and it worked. He was ordered to pay. I don't know about the divorce laws in Florida, but maybe you can ask if there is any such thing provided under the Forida law.

Hang in there. You're doing great!

Love,

So glad you found me! Yeah, most of us in this section have moved to Surviving, but there are still a few of us left. I'll move to Surviving I guess when the divorce is over or almost over I guess.

We do that have in Florida, and my L is going to do that. I think she is talking about setting that up in September b/c she is on vacation this whole month! She is trying to get me everything; primary custody, support, alimony, etc. even though H doesn't want me to have a dime he says! I'm looking for a part-time job though so I can work but still homeschool the kids (they're AS and dyslexic so hsing has been good for them). Yes, I know my H is a jerk (everyone seems to realize but him), but when I talk to him he seems to think he is just looking out for the kids and I'm a horrible mom, etc. Maybe the OW talks trash about me or something? Don't know, but I do wonder will he ever realize the kind of person he is or is this permanent for him? Not that it matters, but it would be nice if he would become easier to deal with at some point!
