Both of these are good plans. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

We're getting pretty diverse now. Lots of transplants from other states.

We had a special guest from CA for awhile, the UnaBomber. He went back where he came from, I believe....

One of our cities is called Bozeman, but is nicknamed Bozehattan because it is getting so high priced and upscale. Creative bunch, aren't we?

I think we will likely need equal billing rather than adopt the sidekick model, but you should probably drive, for reasons Fox alluded to.

SD is for StopDisloyalty, since StopDisloyaltyGuy is the alter-ego I use when showing waywards the error of their ways (by knocking the crap out of them). It's absolutely not for any California city, like, um, say, San Diego. Nope. Not for that. Anyway, I'm from the Midwest.

oooooo....you're quick. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Fox

Well we have covered a lot of ground here this last hour:

- Robin’s sexual orientation.
- That wayward baboons in lipstick and heels are still waywards.
- The nutritional value of cooked horse.
- Peeking up Wonder Woman’s skirt. (are Amazons related to the Scots?)
- Is the Batmobile rated to pull a Class V trailer?
- Can SL really deflect bullets with her braclets?
- Would Wonder Woman’s lariat of truth work on a wayward?

Where else can this thread go?

I'll drive but you will need to film it.

I see us as more of the Tubbs and Crocket mold anyway. Stylish with expensive shades.

With all these important issues going back and forth, I regret to point out that once again....sippy cups are getting neglected. (sigh) Will we never learn, sippy cups cannot take a backseat! They are of utmost importance.

Don't get grounded SDguy, it just wouldn't be the same without you!

But no ties, right?

I forget how the golden lasso thing works. When they're all wrapped up, they have to tell the truth, right? Is that the truth as they believe it, or the truth truth? Man, that would really be something to watch their faces as they were forced to speak the truth about their actions.

Well Sdguy,

I don’t know how long it has been for you but if SD was in my moniker it would stand for Sexually Disappointed Guy.

What kind of pathetic super powers would he have?

Regarding the lasso I think their heads would explode before they could tell the truth. What a mess that would be.

They don't allow ties in Montana.

That's why I wanted you to drive if SL's wearing the Wonder Woman outfit.

I had to attend a training session yesterday on the Attitude Virus. Not because I have a bad attitude (which I do), but to show the power of positive thinking. So, instead of Sexually Disappointed Guy, how about Abstinence Man ?

Trouble in the Montana State girls' dormitory? This is a job for Abstinence Man.

Somebody saw a rat in the dressing room at the Victoria's Secret fashion show? Call Abstinence Man.

Problems with bacterial growth in your Sippy Cups? Abstinence Man can probably help you with that, too.

Cue the stirring patriotic music.

Wildhorses really needs to get a grip of her own thread here.

Yes, this is very much considered thread jacking...

but, I think she is making an exception for you two...since you are heroes and all!

I can't get a grip.....I'm laughing too hard!

And the "single-handed" comment, I am not touching! Won't say a darn thing about getting a grip either.

Yup, this thread has certainly derailed somewhere along the way. But InHisCare is right, I'll make an exception for the heroes in the Batmobile!

I'll try to get it back on track this weekend..... I have much to say but was having such a good day I didn't want to get into it. I do need opinions, though. The regularly scheduled program will continue later....I'm enjoying the cartoons right now. (not to imply that you two are a joke <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />)

Thanks, everyone, for being part of a good day! Hope you all have a great weekend!

Fox

How was the rodeo Wild?

I was at my friends house all weekend and missed all of the Abstinence man and Batman saga....

i agree with the heads of the waywards exploding under the power of the Golden Lariat of Truth. What A MESS!!!

Hey, Fox, you can take over your own thread any time now...

Good morning, all!

Rodeo was alot of fun but VERY tiring. I'm wiped out today and I have volleyball practice tonight. Woke up to snow this morning....I am SO ready for spring!

I need some advice on how to handle Easter/Spring Break with WH. WH requested a couple of weeks ago to have DDs this coming weekend, Friday after school through Easter and then Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday for Spring break. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> I don't like this because I would like them for at least part of Easter and I don't want DDs staying at MOW/WH house at all. Before he had requested them, my original response in my parenting plan that went to WH lawyer was that I would have DDs on Easter and all of spring break, WH would then have them on Memorial Day.

DD13 has asked if they can spend part of Easter with WH and then come home around noon and spend the afternoon with me. She says she doesn't know what she wants to do about Spring Break. I haven't really pushed the conversation with her because I don't know how I want to handle it. I better decide soon....it's coming up pretty quickly.

I don't have a problem compromising but I don't want it to appear that I am willing to let them spend the night at MOW/WH house. Because I HATE that...but how can I stop it? And what difference does it make? Whenever he has them now, he takes them back to his house and they see him "making out" with MOW. What's the difference if they spend the night...they are there but at least not seeing the "activities".

My concern is how this will look to a judge if I flat out say no to overnight visits until they are court mandated. For Spring Break I had considered agreeing to WH picking them up in the morning and dropping them off when I get off of work on Mon-Wed. MOW will be at work. My worry is that he will not bring them back and just keep them for the overnights. Then return them when he had originally said on Wednesday at 7:30.

DDs have only spent the night at WH house one weekend. I, of course, was not made aware of this until after WH already had DDs and they were there. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

Any insights, opinions, etc? Thank you all for checking in on me, I really appreciate it (thread jacks and all!)

Fox

If you don't feel that overnights are appropriate, then state it like that. It sounds like the girls are old enough to discern between right and wrong, and they both KNOW that this R with OW is WRONG. How do the girls feel about overnights?

I would say that you should modify your original plan to a weekend visit to end on Easter Sunday around Noon, thereafter, WH can visit with the girls if he would like. If you had already made plans for your DD's to be home, why change them? I say compromise for the weekend, but bring them home during the week. Just my opinion...

Hmmm... Have you considered asking your attorney if he/she thinks your refusal on overnights due to WH's living conditions will have any affect on you? I know it would be speculation, but you'd think they've seen this before.

I'd be inclined to say no myself. He's not paying CS until it's COURT ORDERED so why worry about not allowing overnights til you are court ordered to do so. If he wants to get into tit for tat in court, he'll lose bigtime, IMO.

Anyway, that's my opinion... but I'm no expert.

Hi Horses,

I am glad you had a good weekend. I wish I had some great advice for you on these holidays. I am very fortunate that DD19 is out of the Wayzilla tar pits. I don't envy any of you with minor children.

But I do like SL's and FamilyCF's thoughts here. If it was in your plan as submitted that's the way it should go. Have your A call his A and tell him it will happen just the way you turned in your plan. If this is a battle in the war you feel you can't lose, tell your A to strap it on and fight.
