Hey Gak...

Quote From: gaktstoner

I've been wondering how you have been while the boards were down!  I forgot to write down your e-mail and then POOF! the boards were down!  I'm doing ok.  It's still the same stuff just different days.  My h is a bicycling enthusiast, so he had been glued to the tv watching the tour de france.  Last weekend on the tours last day, he was sitting in our 3 season room watching the tour.  he came into the family where the kids were playing and told them to turn on the tv to watch lance win his 7th race.  Then he went back out to the 3 season room to watch it by himself!  Also like when my son had summer hockey practice the other night.  My h took our daughter home so she didn't have to stay at the rink.  Well, when my son and I arrived home at 9pm, she was watching tv and asked to be fed because she was hungry and her father hadn't fed her.  He was out in that 3 season room watching tv!  he hasn't changed and that keeps me going forward.  But every time I want to do something with the kids, he whines to his lawyer that I am alienating them from him.  He just doens't want us to do anything, he likes us sitting here at home so he can watch our every move.  I offered two night a week and every other weekend to him and he wont' budge.  Looks like if we don't agree by august 25th, we're going to trial.  My lawyer is confident we'll "win"  but I am nervous and scared of him-I've never stood up to him and felt like I've accomplished anything.  Oh well, I'm just rambling, sorry.  Thanks for writing to me! :)

Didn't I TELL you he hasn't changed?  AND he isn't going to -- not in the long run.

 

Regarding his neglect of the children, I hope you are keep your journal.

 

You aren't alienating your kids.  You are just doing what you always have -- taking care of them.

 

You WILL win, GAK.  There is NO WAY you can't win.  It's opkay to be nervous and scared -- that's VERY normal.  I was PETRIFIED EVERY time I went to court.  Not only that I'd lose but also that he would make good on all his threats.

 

This situation will make you a stronger woman.  It did for me!  Q
