Check out The Scholastic Scribe - she's go the latest Lizzy interview - and you'll want to read it because it makes a VERY important announcement.
I don't often say much about my STBX around here... I'm trying really hard to be civil with him for the good of the girls. But I've been pushed to my ever lovin' edge. First, as I was driving Saturday morning to take the girls to him, I called to tell him I'd be a little late. He said he had just been talking to his friend, and I ask what Friend was up to today. "Oh, he's out hunting... where I'm supposed to be today. But it's okay, I need to do this." OH I AM SO SORRY!!! Did seeing your CHILDREN for the first time in almost a MONTH mean that you had to miss HUNTING which you can do EVERY SINGLE MOTHER LOVING DAY?????????
Then
Last night I pick them up. The girls were in my car and he and I were talking. He said that he and Essie got into it a few times, and finally told her "Look your mom and I aren't divorced yet, only separated. I'm not sure what's going on (meaning I haven't filed for divorce yet because I'm trying to do it for free through legal aid and I'm on a waiting list) but maybe she's waiting for you and I to get along and then we can all be back together." EXCUSE ME???? WE ARE NOT getting back together, and NOW you have just put 6 tons of EXPECTATION on a 9-year-old for something that IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
THEN
He said that he had taken them by his work. Gert walks right up to one of his co-workers and says "Hi, my name is Gert, what's your name." Essie hangs back... doesn't really say much. SO AW (Butt Wipe) says "This one (pointing to Gert) would make friends with a lamp post. That one (pointing at Essie) has a hard time making friends." YES SHE DOES AND SHE'S UPSET ABOUT THAT CONSTANTLY BUT THANK YOU FOR ADVERTISING IT FOR HER YOU FS.
THEN
This morning Essie informs me that her Dad said that every time he sees me, I have new clothes, but Essie is dressed in old stuff... "basically rags" were her words. I DO NOT HAVE NEW CLOTHES. The clothes I have were bought for me BY MY mom & step mom and RIGHT NOW I don't even have enough professional clothes to get me through a WEEK of WORK. I have bought Essie NUMEROUS articles of clothing that she WILL NOT WEAR because she has extremely sensitive skin and pretty much can't stand the feel of anything on her, PLUS she's now out grown kids sizes and it is REALLY hard to find anything in misses sizes that she will wear.
SO.... I'm calling Legal Aid today, and if I'm not on the top of their waiting list, I'm calling a lawyer. I don't know how in the skee-doodle I'll afford it, but this has got to be done. NOW.
And my dad e-mailed... My Aunt Mary fell and broke her hip. She has Parkinson's... it's not good.
I think I'll move to Australia.

Yuck, that's ugly! He's being a jerk. Keep your chin up! Call the legal aid so you can get on with your life!!
Can I go to Australia with you??

Oh Lizzy, my heart hurts. To hardly get to see him, then have to come back with this play by play? How awful. For both of them. Poor girls. Bless their hearts. And you, too. I know it pains you to see/hear this. Maybe you should rename him worthless piece of *beep*.
Oh, and sorry about Aunt Mary. Hope all will be ok with that.
Alexander would be happy for the company, I'm sure. So sad. :-(
What a jerk-a-doodle-doo! I hope you get moved to the top of the list TODAY!
Oh honey I had no idea. I'm so sorry you have to go through all this mess. I'll be praying that everything will work the way you want it to and quickly.
What a ass! Sorry! Keeping you and you girls in my prayers. I hope everything works out for yall.
Much Love
Anissa
Want me to have him knocked off? I know someone.
I was going to post about my loverly ex today as well. He hasn't seen his kids in about three weeks (and doesn't call in between visitation times) because he has no car now, and evidently doesn't have money to help out with extras...school and sport photos, halloween, that sort of thing.
My mom lives with us now, and in his mind, I now have "two incomes"...I wish!
Um, if you move to Australia, can seven more come with you???
Hope you aunt will be okay...I'm so sorry.
They can be real Richard Craniums sometimes, can't they??
I hate it when kids are spoken to/about like that and especially by their Dad who should know better!!!
I am sorry...but it would seem you have made a good choice!
Men are grrrrrrrr! Well let me rephrase that...some ex's can be grrrrrr!!
I am truely sorry that your A$$WipeEx was so very hurtful this weekend. I think he needs to learn to think before he speaks.
I am so sorry about your aunt. I hope she is better soon and there are no complications.
How does that saying go...
I miss my ex, but my aim is improving!
Your preaching to the quire here on x's, remember I have five of them.
Well, really four one twice.
Be strong, hang on and things will get better.
How about a do it yourself forms off the internet signed off by a Judge divorce?
I'm sorry for your Aunt Mary :(
Ex's need to be shipped overseas somewhere and tortured. I will send mine along with yours. Make him pay for the damn divorce, my ex did, he wanted it, he had to pay for it!!
Hope your Aunt gets well soon and God bless you all :D
For the life of me- I don't understand how grown ups (and I use the term loosely) can use their children in such awful ways.
I am with Swirl girl. I don't understand how he can say such things. Is he really that clueless that it would be hurtful? Somehow I just don't buy it. And I am so very sorry that you are having to deal with this.
Australia is much too far to go. However would we meet up for impromptu Applebees lunches??
I don't know what to say so I am sending you a big cyber hug. ((((((hug))))))
This guy... oh... he... makes... me... so... MAD!!! Tell him to go hunting and we will all go hunting him!
Wha-? He sounds like so much fun. Your poor daughter.
And for the record, everytime I've seen you, you were wearing a new outfit. I saw the Chanel tags. I'm just sayin'.... :)
Oh (((HUGS))) to you and the girls, too.
What a total PITA a certain X is, yeesh.
Hoping that you are next on the list so you don't have to pay for the lawyer!!!!
one more (hug) which I swear is not contaminated because I've been Mommy the Human Kleenex for my snottastic kiddo all day. :)
Dealing with the ex's is one of the most trying things you will ever do in your life. Take a deep breath...call a lawyer...and take Mr. B with you to Australia:-)
Yucky yuck yuck! I'm sorry that this is happening! Sending you a hug! And thanks for stopping by my blog--I see you all over the place and have been meaning to stop by! So glad I did! And yes, you are right about the title of my post! :) hehe
I'm sorry about your Aunt, Betchie. : (
... and I'm p!$s3D about the ex!!! What is that f#*K stick thinking? Have you confronted him about this stuff?
I'm thinking of you, hon.
AAAAAAAAAAAH.
This is me screaming for you!
It was a Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, wasn't it. I'd come to Australia with you, but I think that ticket is reserved for Mr. B.
Oh Lizzy, I'm so sorry all of this is happening right now. I can't imagine how frustrating it all is for you but I can tell you I am screaming AAAAAAH from anger right along with Gina for you. Running away to Australia won't help but I'll sure pray really really hard that things fall into place quickly so you don't have to be in limbo with him much longer. Maybe you and Mr. B can go there on your honeymoon. Did I jump the gun a bit or what? I'll also keep your aunt in my prayers.
Here was my response to your interview. I am giving my apology in advance for my slight slip of the tongue/fingers.
All I want to know is where do I sign up to put you on the real ballot in Nov? I'm tired of these other jokers (Sorry) CANDIDATES as you are the one who continually answers the questions I have for them with answers I would expect/hope to hear from them. I bet all the money these guys have raised for their party's and tours you would put directly toward the deficit, health care, education and energy. Am I right?
Oh hon, hang in there. :(
We love you!
Wow. That really sucks. What a jerk. I'm sorry. ((hugs))
So sorry you have to put up with this crap and the girls do, too. Sending you hugs and prayers in my thoughts right now!
Ignoramus exes SUCK. I wish we could ship them all to an island. Full of maneating monsters.
xoxo
Its a shame that your girls are more mature than their father. I can't believe he would say stuff like that to his own daughters. Poop on him.
How sad! What a jerk! I am new to your blog(s), found you from the OSB blog! Which I am new to also! You rock, sorry you are going through such a crappy time.
Sorry you and the girls are going through this....I hope things will get better for you soon!
Sorry to hear about your aunt as well!!! That's terrible!
Oh Lizzy! That's just terrible. Sometimes I can't believe what some parents will say in front of or to their kids. I just wanna slap him silly!
Sorry about your Aunt too! Hope all is well soon!
*HUGS*
I'm sorry about your Aunt Mary...and your asshat of a husband. He should NOT put that much pressure on your daughter. That's just so wrong. GRRR.
First of all, I am so sorry about Aunt Mary...positive thoughts and prayers to all of you. As for the ex, He barely deserves mentioning..but poor Essie and Gert! they both deserve extra cuddling and loves. My brother is an attorney...I wish that he could be your lawyer but he is only licensed in Florida and he's a criminal attorny. Maybe I could bump off your ex and he could defend me...yeah, that could work! I'm just kidding!! But seriously, has legal aide called you? have you treid calling family attorneys and seeing if they would do it pro-bono? Many do that...it's worht a try?
I'm so sorry the STBX is being such a mega PITA. Crossing my fingers that you are expedited to the top of the Legal Aid list. And I'm sorry about Aunt Mary. Keeping you all in my thoughts!
