Hi Georgia, We should start a club of people who think the ex is a dunba$$! Let's see..doesn't remember anything, check! Lies all the time when the truth would be just as good, Check! Ultra-incredibly self absorbed, double check! Get a headache when I speak with her, check! Embarrassed by her behavior, check! Has Canal-side property on Mars, Check! You can add in that I'm now evil and a monster as well! Oh well, just another day in MLC LBS land!
Got good news today. My D19 got a job! Had her first interview and got it! I'm proud of her. It can't be easy going from being totally taken care of by parents to totally on her own and with very little money! To think of the trouble some kids have going from HS to college and here she had to go from HS, lose her parental safety net, get a job, pay for EVERYTHING and start college all within 2 months after graduating from HS! Add in that her mother now thinks since she is over 18 she doesn't have to do a dam thing for her and made it known that she would rather her live in sin with her BF than live with her father (remember, I'm now a monster!)and I think she is a pretty tuff cookie! Good to see that I'm raising a strong, independent woman who isn't afraid of taking life by the horns! When she called to tell me, she was saying how she can't call her mom as her mom gets angry if she "bothers her" at work. I told her about her sister picking her classes at the public school and she got angry saying how unfair it was that her sister didn't get to go to the school she did. She told me that her mom was talking to her friend (the one who came and helped W pack) saying how much fun D14 has when she is at her mom's. She said she had to hold back a laugh as she's been there and her sister spends all her time in her room avoiding her mother. The only thing she likes about being at her mom's is that the internet is faster! Another bit of fantasy from W's MLC mind! Do they really think that the stuff they make up in their fevered fantasies are real?
Matt (sorry for threadjack btw) My youngest son was almost 19 when my xh walked out. It was tough for him but he has done so well, and finally decided to train as a lawyer following his degree, and has just landed an amazing job. Financially it was tough all round, on me and on him. He is also about to get married to a wonderful woman.
Hey Georgia can i join the club too? My h is very outdoorsy and from time to time I hope he will just go off the grid and be a true mountain man. Would seriously make life easier.
At least your eyes are open and you don't expect him to be anything other than a dumba$$
Happy Friday everone you!

Thanks for the laughs everyone. Ready??? I did not 1 but 2 amusement parks today. 1 not crowded. At all. Road one coaster 5 times in a row and did not puke. Where is my gold star???

Thanks GGrass. So I'm giving myself a goldstar today. I was getting coffee at the Starbucks in the resort this am. A police officer walks up to me and said that he thought I was crazy when I was going across the street with the 3 kids. I said "they can get a little wacky. It's fun though." He said "you are doing a great job!" Which lead to s11 talking to another police officer. My kids are really sweet-s4 is extremely outgoing and a bit of a handful. Peeps came up and talked to us all day. Maybe one day when I'm ready a Christian Bale look a like who happens to be a millionaire will give me an eye. Hopefully not his actual eyeball:-)
Anyway. Got to the theme park when doors opened today and left when they closed tonight. I officially give myself 3 gold starts and a padded room:-)

Gosh, I read all these threads and peeps have some kind of positive or surprising interaction from their WAS. I think that's awesome:-) A funny. Was in a gift shop with the kids and there was a basket with travel mugs with names on clearance. There were 4 travel mugs in bin all bearing the same name-Ow.
Also, and it's public so I took a peek adter a friend told me OW tweeted that "h had been following his heart for 12 years and that had made his life crap." She said she was getting him to think with his brain. :-)
Off to see clients in NY tomorrow. The scale is still my enemy.

Looking at the Wicked Witch's crystal ball with the flying monkeys bouncing around it...I see the following:
-OW18 marries the Prince of her dreams -Have 6 babies (one's a pair of twins) -House mortgage -Bills to pay -12 loads of laundry every 3 days -Her H runs off on her
