It sounds like you're handling things well. The custody issue is so difficult, I'm sorry you're dealing w/a broken person. It is unbelievable how blind they are when it comes to custody. 52 weekends a year, they just don't get it. Xw told me I could have a relationship w/the kids through Skype! Thank God things worked in my favor. I really think the notebook idea mentioned is great, it would be good insurance in case you h gets more hostile. I know I sound like a broken record but it gave the guardian attorney a glimpse into her actions.
