Trying to move on

I am not sure about Illinois, but in Indiana, even with just visitation, the non-custodial parent gets half the summers with the children and half the vacations. For example, when the girls have two weeks off at Christmas, you would get them for one whole week and W would get one whole week. During the summer, you would get the girls for half the weeks that they are off, and once again that is just for visitation so since you are doing joint physical custody you have a right to have the girls for half the summer (that is the part I have a hard time with when it come to D with my H because I couldn't live a whole month with only seeing S once in a while). Something you should definitely look in to.

Sorry about looking for a new place. Apartments are hard when you have young children. Maybe a duplex somewhere? At least that way you only have one neighbor as well.
