It IS encouraging. And I do feel more like I'm catching on.
In other news, xh has decided he wants to renegotiate child support since my income has increased. Three months ago he was fine with it all; I think he's leaning on the improved goodwill between us with the new girlfriend to make this move. Cripe--he's already paying less than 5% of his income, which is absurd. What a jerk--like we're living high on the proverbial hog or something.
I remember a few years ago when my sister's ex wanted to re-negotiate child support, he was paying $100 per month and wanted to pay $0 (I'm not kidding!). He went to a lawyer to initiate the court process and was told to go back to my sister and beg her to take $300 a month from him and not take this to court. What a morooon that guy was and my sister got $200 more per month!
