I don't know why I was worrying about H answering my email. I was thinking about things a while and I realize that I really trounced him in court today.

Even though he put his trash on display and it hurt, even though the tramp didn't have to testify yet...

I SO GOT him.

The money.

The me/lawyer thing.

The restraining order extended so he can't use OUR collection to further his affair.

Oh, how he must have hated that!

At one point I had to give his lawyer credit. H was whining about photos and this-n-that and his lawyer says..."you don't need photos to survive."

Oh! Burn! Burn! Burn!

So even though I jumped in his lawyer's crap a couple of times his lawyer smacked him down at least once.

If there were any other times I didn't notice. Because of...well, you know.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone that happens to check in on this thread!!

Happy Anniversary to me and H!

<img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> ...and THAT is the point of doing a great Plan-A!!!

Charlotte - Your H WILL notice... he will eventually see what he's doing. You're making yourself all nice and sparkley while he's wallowing in the mud with the OW... the contrast is obvious to everyone but them for now.

It won't be long before he will recognize what a gem you are!

Semper Fi,

RIF

You must have posted right before me...

Happy Anniversary to you Charlotte!!!

Mrs. RIF and I will be celebrating our 21st anniversary this coming December.

You hang in there... I'm sure that you and your H will celebrate many more anniversaries together too... this one might not be one of the 'happier' ones, but you WILL make it through this!

Semper Fi,

RIF

Thank you, RIF! I know you are right. I am trying to hang in there for us, for H and for the rest of the family.

I just finished a lengthy email to my bro' to update him on the sitch.

I'm not quite sleepy enough for bed yet. Maybe in a while.

Hey Charlotte - I just got back from the chow hall... and I'm stuffed!!!

I hope you're asleep by now and getting some good rest... I'll check back in a bit.

Good night! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Hi RIF!!

You are making me hungry again! I had a little etouffee that I made a couple of days ago. Yep, Louisiana shrimp, too. None of that stuff from China!

I think I might try to sleep in a few. Thinking about H. Trying not to think about my lawyer.

H could not have NOT noticed what was going on. I noticed and now I am embarassed.

I hope H pukes all day today.

It would serve him right.

G'nite, RIF!

Good night Charlotte!

I am here to attest that Charlotte's attorney is quite attractive - imagine Sylvester Stallone without the muscles and without the NY accent. He also has a wonderful, gentle demeanor. BUT, he is very married (or at least he was when he represented me in my D) with kids.

Hi Brit\'s Brat!

We've got a lot of Italian troops here at our FOB... they sure do wear some skimpy PT shorts when they go to the gym! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

It must be a European thing... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Hey Charlotte - I hope you got some rest this morning and I hope you have a Great Thanksgiving!!!

Semper Fi,

RIF

Hi BB,

Good description. He doesn't have the SS quivering bow lips, though.

Gee, BB...I'm married too!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I didn't ask his current status. I am just glad he was there and he made a horrible situation much more bearable. I'll remember that more than the bad behavior of the infidels.

I'm betting H will, too.

Wow, BB referred you to this guy? Does she know any hot attorneys in California?

Hi RIF!!

Thank you! I will give it my best shot.

Gee thanks a lot, you guys! I wasn't thinking about my lawyer and now I am!

He puts poor H to shame in H's current condition.

(Skimpy shorts, huh, RIF...;))

Hi believer!

Yep. I don't know if she knows any in CA but ya' never know! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I don't remember meeting such a nice, good-looking attorney before...oh wait, when the airport trial was going on here and the city was suing some developers over misuse of the land they were supposed to be using for the airport...

One of their attorneys was quite handsome. He was a younger guy, though. I was on the jury for that one and the trial lasted two weeks...a record for tiny town! I was dating H at that time.

My bro's attorney looked like a 10-year-old kid that was the size of a man. I'll be he looked EXACTLY the same when he was 10. Only his dimensions got larger.

Sorry Charlotte... and yeah, the Italians sure have a thing for skimpy shorts...

Hope you have a great Thanksgiving!!!

That's okay! Your description was funny. I see a herd of Italians trotting into the gym in single file in their skimpy shorts!

Thanks again, RIF...hey, it will be time to eat soon!!

Yeah, Charlotte. My attorney cost over $7,000. For that price, he could have at least been cute. Next time I will talk to BB.

Happy Thanksgiving to you too, Charlotte22.

Just checking in before leaving for Mass.

Will finish your thread after returning. Enjoy your dinner & your family. I am pleased for you that your DIL, GS and DS will be by your side today.

Wow believer! You ain't kiddin'!

Shoulda been drop-dead, younger Robert Redford gorgeous. If you like Robert Redford.

Okay, shoulda been drop-dead, sexy, Christian Bale gorgeous!

Thanks, Bellevue!

I'm glad they are coming, too!

We will have a great time!

And H knows they're coming.

H probably won't speak to me again. His money and his precious junk are too important to him.

Much more important than me.
