I have to let it go Starsky. There isn't much else I can do about it. It has caused me enough stress to feel like someone beat me up.

A little Monday morning craziness....

Note: W and I were both born and raised in the same small town in NM.

My W calls me first thing this morning while I was getting ready for work.


W: It has already started, the rumors are already flying. Someone told my friend's mom that I am abandoning my kids. I haven't even told my family anything, so it is coming from your side. I know how your mom likes to gossip. Tell her to watch what she says.

M: My mom hasn't told my sisters. I don't know who is spreading rumors. I don't know what to tell you.

W: I know it isn't you. It has to be your mom.

M: I have already asked my mom not tell anyone anything. I have to go. I need to finish getting ready for work.

This is part of the reason I do not want to live in NM. I do not like dealing with this crazy drama.

My W(STBX) does not take responsibility for any of this mess. She looks to blame anyone, but herself. I know she has told her family, because she said this yesterday......


W: My step-mom and my half sister can't believe it.

M: Can't believe which part?

W: That you are fighting for the kids.

M: What a ridiculous idea, a father would fight for his kids.

End of that part of this discussion.

I talked to my mom again this morning to let her know what had taken place and to let her know that they are gunning for her.
