I'ts fine so far. Same gloomy weather as this past week but not too bad. I'm going to stay home tonight. I called the dr. office today and they set me up for an ultrasound--they said the earliest opening they had was Tues. am. I'm glad I called.
Had an errand day today, but had a little bit of fun, while waiting for one office to open, went with the kids into some cute little shops and got ice cream. My GALing for the weekend...D9 had art club and then I dropped the kids off with their dad. Free for a day anyway...
I'm still applying to jobs believe it or not. I've started applying to weekend jobs. Preemptive, b/c I predict H is going to bring up my pt M-Thur. job as a problem with the hsing. I was thinking about trying to keep both jobs at least short-term for a while for $$ reasons, and then we will see. But I'm just thinking ahead. Most of the jobs I've applied to are at the local hospital and would be a good place to work.
Karen, I dont think that its a bad idea at all to keep your eyes open for a better opportunity. What would you do at the hospital? They usually are great places to work!
I guess I gave the wrong finger to the wrong man...
Oh, yeah, they have some award for being one of the 100 best places to work or something like that. I applied to 2 weekend jobs there in the past 2 weeks. One was for unit secretary and that would be great, my sil who's a nurse says that would be a great job and a little challenging but I'd prob do great. The other is medical records and prob. filing and more receptionist like the other job I have which should be fine too, and I could maybe work my way into a more challenging job eventually. If I get 2 jobs, I would prob. work them both as long as I could so I could build up a savings fund.
Like for summer camp $$. I talked to my friends today and worked out vacation bible school for D9. I'll drop her off at 9 and then volunteer there until I have to leave for work. The pastor's teenage daughter is going to take her to the theatre for afternoon camp (b/c I'll be at work). My theatre friend who's the director said he's hoping H will pay him, but if not, they'll pay for her to go to camp with extra scholarship money they have. Hmmm. I know they don't really have that, so hopefully H will do this!
I've been getting email notices from the one credit card; doesn't appear he's paying it anymore, so I guess he's getting ready to file B. And if he hasn't been paying his bills, he's prob. got a huge chunk of cash if he's only been paying rent (his car is paid off).
I emailed him a month ago re: summer camps in my town and he emailed back he was going to check into summer camps in his town. Yep, that'll be more expensive and he'd have to do half the driving so never heard back from him. I emailed him yesterday re: them and no answer. Called him this am and left vm re: the camps. No return call or email yet.
It's so funny b/c while H is like he is, I have friends that are really wonderful! I have to feel sorry, b/c I don't think he has friends like I do.... Karen
Sounds like he is going full forward with the bankruptcy. Don't you still have things to work out with that? I don't know how they can do it. I really don't.
I have such guilt over mine. I wish there had been a way around it but this is reality. Does your L still think that you have to file with him?
Are you feeling any better? I know I sometimes get a really sharp pain on my side and it hurts to walk. Not sure what it is, probably from a cyst on my ovary rupturing.
Yes, I think you have friends galore. I can see that about you. Your H just has OW as if that is any comfort.

And I don't think that'll last very long do you? He emailed back I get more money than him every month $600 more than him so he can't afford theatre camp. (I just calculated I do get $36,000 per year from him now for child support/alimony, but he makes $87,000 so seems hard to believe I get $600 more?).
He doesn't seem to want to pay for the art camp $65 x 3 weeks either. I asked him if he would pay the first 2 and I would pay the last 2 (I'll just go hard core on groceries for the next month). There's no way I could pay all 4 weeks of art camp and I don't get my 1st paycheck until June 30th (and that'll be about $200) so if he won't agree to a stinking $130 for her art camp I won't be able to have her do camp (with driving and all can't do the half day camp). Like he can't afford $130 for camp. He's such a jerk!!!
Oh, still have the pain on my side, but it's not gotten worse. I'll have the ultrasound Tues. and see if they can see what it is? Maybe I pulled a muscle there also? I have been lifting heavy boxes and stuff lately... Karen
And while saying he has no $$$ for camp, he emails me he can't do any of the driving which is why he told me not to move where I am and it was a mistake. I live 15 minutes from her camps and 15 minutes from him, it's in the middle so I don't get that. I emailed back that I would do all the driving, no problem.
Sorry you are having to deal with this stuff. I am in sort of the same boat. Ex wants to meet me now to talk about the kid situation. Really don't think there is much to discuss but I want to get my house key back(he swiped one at some point and I am not comfortable with that)or I will change the locks.
Anyway I will catch up with you on tha alternate universe a tad later than we originally discussed...maybe a half hour later?
