What ever happened to Laughing......

[Between Tears]

Hi to you all, and thank you so much for responding, your thoughts mean so much to me.

I'm sitting here reeling, because of the way the "court" decided I was unstable/crazy....

Of course, I was ordered to take a psychological evaluation, although I was told at the time, the test was not ordered for child custody.

Anyway, took the test, received a quick overview of the evaluation from the person who did the evaluation, then as ordered signed the papers which allowed the court to receive a copy of my evaluation.

To my horror, I watched Dick and his attorney skim over MY evaluation.... mind you, I wasn't even allowed to read my OWN evaluation, never mind his... unfair??? YES, but it gets worse.

The way they determined my stability was allowing Dick to announce while he was on the stand, under oath, that he read my psychological evaluation (mind you, he doesn't have a degree, never mind an understanding of psychology) and it stated that I was a "pathological liar."

Oh, it gets better, he also announces while on the stand that he had been out to my house.... ya, an address that I have withheld and asked for privacy, he was out here, without my permission no less, and told the court I had five dogs (I have 2), there were dishes left in the sink, (yup, a rinsed coffee cup, I don't have a dishwasher) the house was filthy, there was laundry on the floor (I was at the laundromat at the time, there wasn't any dirty laundry in the house, never mind on the floor and sure it had been two days since I had vacuumed, but the house wasn't dirty) and he found there were so many dog "piles" leading to the door, he had a difficult time climbing the stairs in order to enter the house. The truth, the dogs do their "thing" in the middle of the dirt road leading to the house... don't know why, they always have though.

God, I felt so sick hearing this coming from his mouth.... and right after he stated this information, the Judge said, you are unstable...

Feeling violated? Yes, I do. I feel that all my rights have been abused. I want to expose the crap I've seen in this court room, while asking for a fair chance.

This all happened while I had a different attorney. I've since fired that one, and have found a Father/Daughter team to represent me. My next hearing is in July... I don't know why or what for, BUT, I go back to court then. It will be 6 years this August that my decree has been finalized.... 6 years.... and I've been brought back to court nearly every 6 months since. How long will it take before the Judge sees that I'm not the one who is angry, or seeking revenge? What will it take to get out of this endless cycle?

Anyway, after having 80 degree days here, we are having a blizzard today... the schools have been closed, the roads nice and icy.. and I have to work tonight when the snow is supposed to be at it's heaviest... I just love Spring!

Hope all is well with you all, and again, thanks for listening.
