do you still have my cell? if you do call. I'll try to talk inbetween pts.
breathe...think..place emotions on hold. you are there for your dd...and you're up against a nonthinking alien entity ok? keep it in perspective and do NOT GIVE IN TO THE POTENTIAL DRAMA...do not buy into it. stay away from it..keep brain in "on' mode".

Thank you so much. Peachy, no I don't have your number. Not sure what happened to it.
My attorney called a few minutes ago and said the judge delayed his ruling on the motion for continuance until late this afternoon. I meet with the lawyer at noon to prepare for mediation. It's going to be very hard to be strong, but I'm going to do my best. Trying to relax and breathe...

Oh how I rmemeber the d ay of mediation. I was scared to death. but let me tell you it was no as bad as I had thought it woould be.
Go in there with your head held up high and fight for what is yours. Believe me WH iwll babble and make himself look foolish. Mine did the mediator was floored by his actions and responses.
Talk in a controlled voice don't let anything he says set you off. Stay the sane one and be smart. Dont give in to his ridculous demands. Don't interupt anything he says let him babble and he will..... Don't argue anything with him show him how in control you are let him be the one to loose it and he will ..... You will blow his mind.....
Good Luck

Thanks, everyone... I put an update on my original thread. Luckily I didn't have to talk to WH or his attorney face to face at all.
