Yes and Yes. I used my notes here for the 9 months before my W said she wanted a D. My lawyer at that point told me to document everything each day - out interactions, when I had the kids on my own, what my W and I did, etc..

The day came when she tried to get a restraining order on me because she caught me tape recording our conversation (based on my lawyers advice). She only got a refrain order and I kept documenting everything. Every Monday night after she got the order she would lay in my bed with me and watch the Monday night line-up. I documented these in detail. When the court date came I handed the paperwork to my lawyer...he smiled and said for this kind of order she has to afraid of you. Obviously that's not the case.

My W is fighting me on 50/50 custody and we did a forensic psychological analysis. I went through all my old posts here and pulled out anything that was relevant...like how often and how much she drank. All this information was turned over the Psychologist.

You never know when you're going to need documentation. Just do it, don't let her know about it.
