Fortunately, I've taken steps to ensure that just about anything she could throw at me will fall flat.
Just going to keep trying to get this done.
W did actually reschedule S's therapy visit this week to her day. That will help keep her from claiming extra days. Not that I'm stingy, but I found out she's been telling people she has more parenting days than I do, which isn't true at all. So I'm going to hold her to the rules (of course, within reason). As soon as I get orders, I'm going to file for child support, which will help our situation drastically, plus send a very clear message that I'm not going to waste time playing her games.
Yeah it's strange how time works isn't it! Those months after BD seem to drag on and on yet a year later it seems like it all went by in a flash. Once you hit 3 years or so post BD, it seems like a distant hazy memory. Or maybe that's just me and my old age
I saw something strange today. Got pictures from a recent company event (because we still work for the same company) and it looked like she was still wearing the rings I gave her. Not on her left ring finger, but her engagement ring on the left middle finger and her band on her right ring finger.
The consensus that one of my coworkers and I had is she probably knew I'd see the picture and it would bug me.
Of course, it still seems weird to be a year into the separation, almost done with the divorce, and for her to show up in pics wearing the rings at all.
Kinda funny, really. Not putting any stock into it, it doesn't ultimately matter (that I know of). But just thought it was weird.
Ugh. So we had to request a hearing to finish up the stuff we didn't get to during mediation, requested "as soon as possible"...but the court set the date half way through April.
"I think there's something weird going on with W. Her mom took the day off to go be with her, another fam member asked her why and it took a few minutes to come up with: "she's losing weight and we're going clothes shopping". Legal problems, pregnant, kicked out? Definitely not shopping though."
Me: *sits back and waits to see what kind of karma bomb goes off in the distance*
Interestingly, she's been gaining weight, had acne breakouts like mad, and she dyed her hair blonde (only time this ever happened was when she was preg with S).
I'm pretty close with her aunt, yes. In fact, most of her family (except her mom, dad, and sister). Some of them have even helped me pay attorney fees and living expenses.
