I think that its important for parents to have a unified front, but I think that in situations where it is so stressful or unpleasant it may be more of a benefit for you to meet seperately.
Is it unpleasant for D9?
Oh, and the whole using S15 xbox money for D9's copay thing? Yuck!
I guess I gave the wrong finger to the wrong man...
How are you? I drove the Insight last night and I really like it!! Mom and Dad went and test drove it and filled out their part of the paperwork. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Fingers and toes crossed, Kat! And prayers will be said tonight. Have you got it yet? I love my Honda you know! Even good to go after that hundred year old tree crushed it (well after a month of car repairs anyway).
We've had lots of rain/a little flooding today. Tonight dropping off the kids was the worst weather I've driven in; the roads were flooded, my little car isn't maybe the best for flooded country roads. I was so mad at H for causing me to be out in crazy weather. I just did a workout though and feel so much better. I've started lifting weights too, which I don't really like, but maybe I'll get buff.
D9 wants to go swimming tomorrow and track nights are over for the summer; so I get to pick the kids up at noon tomorrow. Yahoo! Karen
So I emailed him today and asked him about depositing the alimony/child support check tomorrow so I wouldn't be late with Saturday's rent. (He gets paid Thursday nights electronic in his acct. as a govt. employee). He emails me he doesn't know when his check is going to come in Friday (yeah it's come in every Thursday night for the last 10 years as we both know), so he says he is dating the check with Saturday's date.
Luckily, I called my bank and they have drive-thru on Sat. 9-12. Whew! So I just ignored his email. It's like he goes out of his way to be nasty almost every chance he gets. It's ironic but it does help me detach, because, he's just so unpleasant it makes marriage seem impossible. And I always think how awful it must be to go through life with that kind of attitude!!!
Like I have said before, once the D is done, you should be able to get it electronically deposited. Yes he is going out of his way to be mean and nasty and it often makes me wonder how you couldn't help but be depressed when Mr Gloom and Doom was around. You are Ms Sunshine now, so take that Mr Pita.
I am meeting with the Honda dealer and my parents at 5:30. Hopefully good stuff.

You've got the best attitude, Karen. "Getting you" and getting mad at you is H's only way to help him get through doing what he is doing to you. It helps him, rather than focus his attention on himself and what he is actually doing....and how bad it is and how bad the choice he is making is. Deflecting. Yeah, I think that's the word.
OK, Emergency! S15 locked the bathroom door and somehow closed it behind him. How do I fix this? Do I try to pick the lock or take the doorknob off or what? I actually thought about calling H b/c S15 did this a couple months ago at his apt. but I regained my senses and haven't done that--yet. Karen
You can try and take the handle off and then there might be a release for the lock. Karen you need to remember you are renting now...call your landlord. H has nothing to do with it!
You can do it!

I don't want to call the landlord. Our moving service guys made a hole (dent) in the hallway and my dog trashed the front door area (this is in the last month or so). I'm scared of getting evicted!
