Thanks ladies! That is the first thing on my "The Secret" list. You write down things you want and you see yourself there. Just using positives. I must say it is pretty neat but it doesn't tell you how you will get there!!

Ex is continuing to be an idiot and pita. When I replied to his e-mail that I didn't see anywhere in the guidelines that it says one parent gets all the holidays one year he replies back that "that is what the guidelines say!". Well they don't. Parent A on even years holidays, parent B on odd and then they alternate back and forth ie. if I get Thanksgiving, he gets Christmas and next year flips back. But alien man says oh no I get them all this year.
How did he get his job without being able to interpret this darn document??? He works for an insurance company that has the medicaid contract in our state. He should be able to understand that. AARRGGHH

He sent a few more e-mails the other night. Nag, nag, nag. This does not make kat into a happy kitty but a really irrated one instead. He told me the page he was reading from and right there in black and white it says the exact same thing I am trying to get through his head. You split the holidays and share the time, not get all of it.
I just told him what I read, referenced the same page number and asked him not to email me again today(meaning yesterday). Strange how S16 does the same thing(nagging) and his Dad would always cave rather than listen to him. Me, it just makes me mad!!

Kat, do you think he can even be that dumb???? Do you think he's just trying to mess with you or something? I don't like to think so, but you just have to wonder!!! Karen
I think he is hoping that I will just cave if he nags me enough. He never was one for technical stuff, so yes he could really be that dumb. I don't even like reading technical stuff and I put together almost all of my furniture as well as vaccum cleaners and the like. I have even taken apart part of the frig several times since I seem to have bought a lemon several years ago!
He exhausts me and irriatates me. His mom gave back to me via the kids, a throw my grandmother made her and some thing from Denmark and Slovakia that my "international" family gave her. don't know if she is meaning to hurt me but she did. Good riddance is all I can say.
