Sounds good to me. Where are we staying and when????
OK, day from hell today. The good news is we had my S's 504 meeting and it went well for my S. They are going to include all 5 of my modifications that I got from the local CARD center. They were all very nice. X attacked me repeatedly saying how he was so good at keeping up with my son's work this past month, I'm a crappy uninformed mom. I didn't attend the orientation, I haven't checked on his website portal grades (he gave me the password a few days ago that he's had since August), etc. I haven't done that much with his other classes the past month, but in my defense, just been doing the English virtual school class with him (5 to 10 hours a week) and my full-time job, and D10's homework. I defended myself, and and it was like watching a bunch of 10 year olds I'm sure just sniping the way we were. It was horrible.....
Good God! Even in the presence of S's teachers he couldn't hold his tongue and be an interested, involved father. He just had to attack you. GAG!
Sorry it was so horrible. I'm assuming a 504 meeting is the same as an IEP meeting (Invidualized Education Plan)? I've only ever gotten Gabe to go to one and that was while we were still M'd. He could care less. I guess you could be encouraged that at least your xh has some interest (no matter how hostile that interest is) in the kids' education.

WTF?!? Your H takes the cake for being a stupid jerk!
My ex shed the crocodile tear and put on this woe-is-me act in front of S9's teacher while blaming me entirely for our S's behavior being called into question. It took every ounce of self-control in my being to be able to sit there and take her character assassination. But your ex, Karen, is just a coarse, stupid bully!
Do you have any adult male relatives who might could take your H out back, behind the woodshed, and keel haul his sorry butt (on dry land)?
Kat, feel free, and Goldey, a superboot sounds just like what's needed. NC, I have my brother who would LOVE to do that, but he's in Seattle area, so too far, so X is lucky. And my brother really is not one to fight physically, so he has been helping me with my legal fight against H. And then he plans to sue him civilly to get paid back for legal costs, which if X declares bankruptcy and marries OW as expected, then I wonder if he might have to pay, since he would be doing very well $$. One can only hope.
I forwarded an email to X this week. S16 has been attending confirmation class which all my family for umpteen generations has always done at teen age. He has been attending the class on my Sundays with him. They are having a function with their mentors (an elder of the church) next Sunday though, so asked X to swap weekends so I could take him. He emails back; he had NO IDEA that S16 was taking confirmation class and that he would take him and check it out (like it's some weird thing or something?). I emailed back, I testified that S16 was taking confirmation class on my Sundays at the December hearing (and I've got a bailiff, 2 L's, and a judge as witnesses!) And feel free to attend and ask ?s of S16's wonderful teacher (she really is). He's such a goob....
Talked to S16 about the school issues. Sounds like X way over-dramatized the #s and his role in solving them, I guess to attempt to look like superdad while I am bad mom. Should have thought of that....
Superboot for rent, limited time offer: One slightly used SuperBoot, available Sunday until noon. I need it back, so if you need one after the SuperBowl, I would suggest heading to the mall before the Big Game, or just go dig around in the back of your closet and see what you've got. Price: Just pay it forward, baby. This one's on Goldey. XoXoX

I'll say -- and in a court of law, no less! He might very well need to declare bankruptcy if he's this poor at paying attention in court -- that's supposed to be his very livelihood, right? He couldn't possibly be a trial L, could he? If so, heaven help anyone he represents.
