It's been about a month since I last wrote in this blog and there has been much going on.
Susan and the girls have been texting me and emailing me incessantly about wanting to spend the first week of school at home with their mother. I know it's her and not the girls but they are now taking care of her as she is a co-dependent poster child. I finally relented and let them after getting three emails a day from her and a text every hour it seeemed from Sophia.
I believe I have lost my daughters to her. As they grow older, I'm afraid they will be filled with guilt and anguish over the way they treated me and there is nothing I can do about it. I will maintain a presence in their lives as much as I can.
I went to pick them up last night under the mistaken impressiont that I was supposed to get them on Mondays during the summer. I asked them if they were ready to go and both of them looked at me and said no. It broke my heart like you wouldn't believe.
Susan still insists that I owe five hundred and some odd dollars to the school for tuition from last year. I have insisted that I dont and now she has gotten an attorney to try to prove me wrong. The parenting plan says that we will equally divide the cost of tuition and she is isisting that she and she only be given the thousand dollar hardship scholarship and the five hundred dollar discount for having two kids enrolled. This leaves her paying 375 a month and me paying 485 a month. Hardly equal I must say.
I havent mentioned that when I supposed to get the girls back after her month of having them that I didnt get them because they were still coming back from Florida. When I did get them, we drove by their Mom's house on the way to Olivia's piano lesson and the kids informed that Mr. Robert had spent the night in the house. What my kids thinks passes for normal must be mind boggling. She is still married to the guy that beat her in front of the kids and didn't have divorce papers served on him for a month before she had this guy coming around. Did I mention that he went on vacation with them? During my dating scene pot divorce my kids were around three women that I dated and I married one of the three.
Oh! She has signed Olivia up for soccer, basketball, piano, choir, Girl Scouts, and now she is in a musical performance. She is also going to do dance.
Sophia is going be doing dance, volleyball, and Girl Scouts. They also attend school, when they have time. It's a private school so they have homework every night. I cannot figure out for the life of me what makes her want to do this to these children.
