Hi, Pebbles.

===============================
True. I guess we can hope that the doodie is hitting the fan behind the scenes somewhere. I have read stories here about people who found out months later that exposure had an effect. It's just so hard not knowing, isn't it?
===============================

That doodie is not just in the veritable fan, it has been aerosolized by a kilo of C4, and the particulates are being 'detected' far and wide.

I don't know if you will hear about it or not, but this kind of rumor in the corporate world travels by mouth faster than a bad cold.

I think I am tired enough tonight that I sound like a bad detective novel.

It was a dark and stormy night, here at least, and I bet that your hubby's mood isn't much better. We can only hope that he is seriously desperate. That really helps an affair - end.

So, good night, Pebbles. Worry not about your loser. You will likely get him back and even have a chance at improving the model with some engineering changes. It's always better to figure it out, and fix 'em up, after they crash and burn anyway <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> At least that's the way humans tend to do it.

God bless,
Gimble

Pebbles, sometimes I think the same thing might happen with my WH and OW. *shrug* But nothing I can really do...

WH has really hardened his previously oh-so-guilty heart and has maintained NC or very little C with me. So have I. He has been the one chasing for the sep deed. I sent him the 'final' draft a day before his bday and haven't even got a word from him abt it as yet. Where's the urgency now? It's been 10 days! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Hi, Gimble.

I'm not sure why, but this cracked me up. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Today, I talked to the kids about meeting John's wife in a few weeks. My daughter, of course, said she didn't care, but she did say she thought it felt 'weird.' My son said he had no desire to meet his dad's 'mistress' (his word). I did not tell them how they should act. I just didn't want them to be blindsided if WH introduces her to them early.

The kids do know that their dad and I are still married and that I want to stay married. I asked them if their dad had mentioned anything to them about meeting her. They both said he has never said a word about her, not even in passing; he has never even mentioned her name to them. I guess that goes with him being a conflict-avoider. I wonder if he is just planning on having her in the car with him someday when he picks up the kids. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

I almost think it is strange that he hasn't provided any gifts to them from her. The order states that he cannot expose them to her, but it says nothing about him talking about her. Maybe he thinks he has to keep her a secret until the big meeting. Thank God for small favors, I guess.

Oh, I thought it was funny that my son said, "Who knows? She might not even be around anymore by then." <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

Hi, confused.

You may have something there.

Thanks. At least I will know that I tried everything.

Are you getting ready for your beach trip? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Ashley, the hurry-up and wait seems to be straight from the wayward spouse handbook. They all want a divorce, right away, but then take their time and delay, delay. My WH has done the same thing. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Tonight its shopping...nothing much furniture polish, more picture frames, new mattress and box spring...springs popping through the old one I don't know how my son slept on that!...maybe a little something to hang on the bathroom door.

How was your weekend?

Foreshadowing methinks? Your children are VERY perceptive. It will be like the Parent Trap SQUARED when they meet her. Maybe you should rent it. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

He's calling her a mistress!?? How NICE!

Officially or unofficially, it's getting around. How do you think other married women are going to treat her when they discover she's a tramp? How are happily married men going to treat her? Like typhoid Mary. Single guys are going to think, I can get lucky with this one. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Perceptions are changing!



Close, but needs something more....
faster than a fart in church! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />
faster than a bounced check! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />
faster than Anna Nicole Smith's skivvies! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />
(Did I say those out loud?)

Pebbles. Are you on vacation to the beach? Check my site for my beach review. Let's hear about yours. I see your pictures are missing from the site. Everything OK?

Hi, Pebbles.

How are things?

Gimble

Hi, confused, Sleepless, and Gimble. Thanks for checking on me. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I'm okay. I've just been really busy.

Nothing at all has been happening as far as WH is concerned, nothing that I am aware of.

Some water/sewer pipes burst at my school and all the teachers had to rescue any textbooks we wanted from the supply room. Fortunately, the classrooms were not damaged, but the office and some other rooms were flooded. The entire floor in those areas will have to be re-concreted (is that a word?) and we won't be able to walk on them for a few weeks. That section includes the staff restroom!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> I am also trying to do some lesson planning and preparation, plus school shopping for my own kids.

With my new health insurance, I visited a new doctor. I used to transcribe some of his medical reports when he was a resident at the local VA hospital, so I feel like I already know him. He prescribed Cymbalta, a new AD. My insurance only covers generic drugs, so he is going to provide me with samples so I don't have to pay. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> So far, it has made me very tired in the evening, but I've only been taking it for two days. I am not used to taking any medications regularly and I've never tried ADs before. We'll see how it goes. He assured me this AD does not cause sexual side effects, like that matters right now. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> Oh well, it may be important someday...(I hope <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />).

My son's 14th birthday is today (Wed.). I had his overnight with friends party last week and my parents had a family party for him last weekend. Wednesday is also WH's overnight with the kids. We have not heard a peep from him since last Wednesday. WH also has the kids this weekend, from Friday evening to Sunday evening.

I will have to catch up on everyone else's threads. I just popped in for a few minutes before bedtime.

Again, thanks for checking on me. It's nice to know people care. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I just got my most recent statement from my lawyer. Apparently, the day after I called MOW's parents WH called my lawyer and talked to her for 15 minutes (cost me $45!). The reason is listed as "unwanted phone calls from my client [me]." My lawyer never called me to discuss it, and she didn't send a letter to me about it, either. This happened in the middle of July.

What do you make of that?

I would love to hear what your lawyer said to him about it. She is no dummy and wouldn't likely put up with his nonsense. What did he expect her to do, SPANK YOU?? lol

You're getting no sympathy frome me babe! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />
I just wrote a check for $6000 last week and will be mailing a second check for $2000 tonight. AND she's getting ready for court next week, so I just can't WAIT for next weeks bill. It sucks to be me! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

OOHHH Cute jogger just went by the window. sorry.

Backed up sewers?? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> YUCK!

The AD is making you sleepy? Is that a sexual side affect? You won't need to worry about side effects when sex is an issue again. You won't be on ANY medication. Life will be fine. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Hmmm, let's see.

"Yes judge, she harassed my parents by calling them and telling them the truth!! She even sent proof!!"

"I want that woman arrested right now!!! No, no, no, not my mistress, the other one!!"

He is just confused. it will pass in a while. Your lawyer sounds nice. Maybe hubby's brother should have handled it, after all, someone needs to represent your hubby, even if he isn't a lawyer. I hear that judges really like that <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />


God bless,
Gimble

Sounds to me like exposure had some effect! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Hey Pebbles, it even makes me curious as to what your WH told your lawyer! LOL

Just because WH moved out, and had to change phones, etc to my name and a/c there are all these transfer charges. It makes me more P*ssed that he's able to abandon us and then make ME bear these stupid charges that shldn't have been necessary in the first place. {{ argh }}

Add that to his bill.

BS: U owe the family $45.00 more than the previously agreed amount.

WS: Why?

BS: U took up my lawyers time. Some kind of babble. I don't pay for babble. I pay for legal work. Now why did you waste her time?

WS: I needed to let her know my side of the story.

BS: That's what your lawyer is for, stupid. Unless you want me to call your lawyer and give her my side.

WS: No you can't.

BS: Isn't all fair in Affair and Marriage? LOL!!! WS, you are babbling again. I have to go make a phone call.

WS: To who?

BS: Your legal beagle. Woof!

WS: I'm confused.

BS: Well it certainly isn't the 1st time.

WS: I have to go, my pants are vibrating.

BS: That's your cell phone stupid.

Ws: Oh yea.

BS: The OW is checking up on you....again?!??!!? Have you gone over your family time minutes? What does she charge you when you displease her? LOL!!!! You'd better leave or I may start love busting you all over this house. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

LOL!! You're good Orchid.

Just add the $45 to his side. So obviously, he noticed the exposure. He probably figured he wouldn't get anywhere with you so he went to the lawyer. I wouldn't worry about what he said, if he had a credible threat lawyer would have told you. But I'd be curious about the babble too.

"Hi, Ms. Pebbles Lawyer this is Bam Bam, my W told MOW's parents on me! Tell her to stop being a tattle tail and let me do whatever I want! Its not fair! Why does she keep telling everyone the truth about me?! She's ruining all my fun! How am I suppose to sneak around with my skankasaur if everyone knows I have a W and kids waiting for me?! She's mean, it not fair!"

Ms. Pebble's lawyer didn't respond to him because she/he was laughing to hard.

MelodyLane, I would love to hear what went on in that phone call, too. I was tempted to call my lawyer and find out, then I thought about the cost and restrained myself. WH probably wanted some kind of restraining order to prevent me from calling people.

I can just imagine it.

WH: I want a restraining order to keep that &*%$# from making harrassing phone calls!

Lawyer: How many times has she called you?

WH: Well, she hasn't called me at all.

Lawyer: So, how is it you are being harrassed?

WH: She called my mistress's family and told them the truth! She told them I am married! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Probably. I'm sure he thinks I've been a bad, bad girl. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />
