Karen: Have you talked to a L, b/c maybe she wouldn't be able to get custody b/c of some of the stuff she's done/not done in the past?
The way the papers are being drawn up, I have full physical custody and we share legal custody (decisions about kids upbringing), she attempted to push for 50/50 physical custody but I would not accept that because she could hit me with child support, she said she wouldn't and I told her I couldn't trust her. I told her I would not stand in her way if she wanted to see the kids and she knows that I have never lied to her, so she agreed to let me have full physical custody. I don't want to get into a situation where I have to fight her for custody, it would be ugly, would take time and money and I don't want to go through all that.

Karen: And where are you? Are you busy and having the time of your life hopefully?
I'm so very busy, there is so much work to do at the house cleaning, laundry, baths, yard work, homework, dinner, dishes, and on and on and on. I wouldn't say I'm having the time of my life, but walking upstairs to the kids room before I wake them up for school and seeing them lying there all peaceful and quiet like little angles melts my heart.
W is going to take them next weekend for the first time (its been 3 months since she moved out) so I'll have some time to myself, nothing exciting planned, will work around the house, going to church without the kids is going to hurt.
