This morning at 7 am I was for Second time served with eviction notice/or also called disposessary notice by sheriff.

Not only has Jethro not paid us the amount of child support and alimony, but it seems he has not paid the rent in this home either. The settlement agreement clearly states he's to pay it by the tenth of the month and the spousal support and child support by fifth of month and the remaining thousand dollars by the twentieth of the month.

I started crying and shaking and the sheriff even asked to see my settelement agreement papers. He couldn't believe it. He said whether the judge has signed it or not that the papers clearly stated that rent, alimony and child support was agreed by both parties on june 20 to begin in july of 2003. And that he's clearly in contempt. The sheriff even gave me his card and said he was sorry. Asked if he could try to do something and said maybe a t.p.o. could force him to pay us.

I have been desperately emailing attorneys and faxing them copies of the disposessary.

Just when things are looking up for me, they come slamming down. Honestly, I am wondering if he is lurking here or reading my posts to know just when to shoot me down. Maybe my old "friend" (remember I told you about the girl who was betrayed spouse who lived in my old neighborhood and got me to first find MB is now somebody that's my xhusband's friend now when I first went to her for help?)...Just wondering out loud.

But please pray. We need this money. We need it now. We don't live extravagantly. He pays us less than he should by law. We just want to start our lives over.

Please pray that God speaks to him. God speaks to his soul. It is as though he is just got something that's inside of him that's eaten away his soul. I don't understand why he's doing this to my boy and to me. I have been crying for two hours now. I can't stop. And today I get my boy back.

I have honored the visitation policy and the settlement agreement. I have done what he's asked. I have. So why continue to hurt me? Easy. It's part of spousal abuse. I got a packet from the county victim advocate about this. And it also defines emotional abuse as "witholding of monies to contol/have power over the other spouse". This is yet another form of control...emotional control.

I can say that it is more than frightening. I don't start my new job for 2 weeks and depend on the money to survive for my son and I. He thinks he can just dump us off. That because of a perceived (only by him and not by any legal entity) that he doesn't yet have to pay because it's not signed by judge or beyond the waiting period for final divorce that it's not valid. It IS valid. It is legal. So why? I know I know. Don't try to understand the ways of the waywards. It is true. But to truly do something this much to hurt somebody is beyond me. He got off easy. He paid less and and lied about his income. Got his partner to pose as his "boss" and signed papers stating that. So he got off in paying us less, much less than he should have. But when you own your own business you can definitely "illegally adjust" everything financial wise.

So please pray for us that justice comes for us. I have been fighting him for this very same thing since January of this year. It is horrible. In january after squandering over 30k with Ms. Family Values, he informed me "he didn't have any money to pay us". We showed the court he did. And according to his emails via my attorneys, he just doesn't think he has to pay right now.

He's like a bank. If he can get away with keeping funds in his posession for even 1 more day, he may earn another penny or two in interest. But I fear his greatest pleasure by far is in hurting me. What he doesn't get is this hurts his child. And why? Just last night ironically before this crap started up again, I was praying really hard. I have been actively working on forgiving this man. I don't know what I did to deserve his hate, but I read a thread today posted earlier about the ways the WS thinks. It helped me see that he's truly twisted and warped his Values set. Thus he has made everything he's done out to be good and ok or he couldn't possibly want to do what he's doing and feel good about it. He's villified me.

All I have wanted is peace for my son and I. Just peace and a tiny bit of financial security. That is all. Nothing more. Peace and distance from his choice of sin. Peace and distance from his affairs. Peace and distance from the continued emotional abuse. Peace and distance from my former husband until the day God enters his heart.

Please pray for us. Anything can happen in 7 days. I am more than frightened--I am mortified and actually physically sick. And yet, I somehow expect it as he is still dancing down the road to sin city. When you continue moving down a hellish path in life, what can you expect? Like Einstien said, "The definition of insanity is to do the same thing over and over again and expect the outcome to somehow be different." I know he's lost. I know he doesn't care or respect me either as woman, former wife or mother of his child.

Most men would choose to end the abuse. You'd think after putting me through an 8 hour deposition and hurting me emotionally more than anything had ever done before woiuld make him want to stop this abuse of me. And then to send emails to my attorneys to be sent to me (he has restraining order and can't contact me) saying he wanted me to "be happy and to help me with some of his "friends" who can work with me to get me and my child a home to lease". It is an act. It is all an act. The actions of a man who loves himself far above his own child or far above any other person in his life.

Let this be a lesson to all OP out there lurking...My xhusband will treat his mistress even more poorly than he treated me in years to come. If somebody can do this to someone who loved and honored them and brought their only child into the world and was a loving and kind mother, then what will they do to you?

Sin begats sin begats sin. Need I say more?

And please pray for us. We need immediate resolution and just want to start our lives over, my child and I. We just want peace and that tiny bit of financial security we were awarded in the settlement.

You and your precious boy are always in my prayers. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you always……..

{{{{{{{{{Peachy}}}}}}}}}}}}

I'm so sorry. Prayers for you.

Hi, Peachy, I like reading your posts, you have survived such abuse and oppressions yet you still keep coming back. but I have worried that maybe your ex could lurk here and learn more about you than he needs to know.

I hope and pray you get help with situation
He should "drawn and quartered" for his treatment of you.

I would suggest you keep your personal info off the board, just post and let your friends know if things are good or bad etc. But don't post details. You might be giving him info he can use against you.

I wonder if you went to the Attorney General's office with your documentation if he wouldn't get a wake up call.
Good luck,
Texasgirl

peachy-

You and your son are in my thoughts too. I am so sorry to hear you are going through this right now. Hard to believe that your ex-h wants to keep treating you like this. Sounds like you have found some sympathy with the sheriff. Maybe there are others that can help you. I hope the attorneys can go directly after any salary that your ex- makes. I can't believe that even the threat of jail doesn't force your ex- to pay up. Take care. {{{{peachy & son}}}}

HoFS

Hey, Peachy, just a thought. Wonder if you could take out a full page add in the Atlanta paper. Make it like a wanted poster with your ex'picture It could say: "Wanted for wanton and willful neglect of his ex-wife and child" "This man has refused to take care of his child like he committed to when he married the mother of his child and later when he abandoned his family for another woman"

Wonder if that would get his attention?
Or maybe you should go picket his home or his place of business?

Just some thoughts that might get his attention.

don't know if this kind of attention is what you want, but bet it wouldn't be something he would want.

Again, Good luck. Stay Strong, you will get through this

peachy-

Lord God, Owner of the cattle on a thousand Hills, precious Father of my dear sister Peachy,

Lord, we humbly come to you this morning asking You to intervene for Peachy. Father God, we love You, we seek to follow You, and honor You. But Lord, we are weak human beings.....when things around us do not seem to go well, we become confused, and wonder where YOu are. Lord, You promised YOU WOULD BE RIGHT WITH US! We know You are right with Peachy right this instant. Father, Please let her know You in a new, and deeper way right now. Father, speak to her, guide her, comfort her. Lord Jehovah Jirah, Lord of more than enough....please give Peachy MORE THAN ENOUGH to pay the rent, more than enough to make this move to a new job........provide for her in a super-natural way so her WH will see YOU, and wonder what SHE is doing to be blessed such.

THANK YOU, Jesus, that You love us, that You sacrificed for us. Show us how to sacrifice for You, to live for You, to love You, to walk in Your ways all the minutes, hours and days of our lives.

Thank You, Jesus, for hearing our prayers, for answering our prayers, and for hearing the cry of your sheep, when she is lost and lonely and scared. Thank You, Good Shepherd, for rescueing dear little Peachy from the snare that satan and her WH have tried to put her in.

Thank You, and Praise You, Lord!!
Amen.

Take a deep breath.

Now, someone on the EN board last week wrote about a method a couple used to calm themselves. In an argument, one would hold up their hand, with fingers splayed. The message was: Count five blessings and you'll be calmer. Since you continue to get drawn into this anxiety, I'll start it for you:

1. You found a wonderful house and community in which to live.
2. By the grace of God, hhe landlord was able to help another in need.
3. The wonderful job you prayed for and deserve will begin in only two weeks.
4. You have primary custody of your wonderful son.
5. In addition to God's love, you have many wonderful friends here at MB and in the world who know you will and can suceed.

And that's just the beginning. Remember, we get what we focus upon. Despite the many wonderful events in yesterday's post, you still worried about money and J's impact. And so it happened. There is nothing you can do about it now. It will all play out, so stop worrying about it. Let the sheriff's office and lawyers handle it. Pray, don't worry.

So, for the next two weeks, start packing. Once you begin your new job, you'll be way to busy. You are blessed with this time (2 weeks) to prepare for your new life - use it.

May God bless you and your family.

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{JustPeachy + Son}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} I'm so sorry for you! It HAS to get better -- please don't give up. You have every single person here on MB rooting for you and cheering you on. We're also praying for you, believe it!
You're a dear soul in God's Eyes and we think the world of you, Peachy.
You have posted a few lyrics of songs in your Sig Line in the past; here are a few words from a beautiful song by LeAnn Womack - "I Hope You Dance"
Your E-Friend, Harold

Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give fate a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances
But they're worth taking
Lovin' might be a mistake
But it's worth making
Don't let some hell bent heart
Leave you bitter
When you come close to selling out
Reconsider
Give the heavens above
More than just a passing glance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their years and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
Dance
I hope you dance

Peachy,
my prayers and love is with you and your child.
Stay strong and stay blessed. Give baby boy a hug for me and keep one for your self.
Hugs,
2nd

Peachy,
Prayers for you. Jethro can't keep you down for long. You're going to have a new job and a new home in the near future and soon he'll have much less ability to impact your life. You've hung in through much worse. You'll make it through this. Hopefully your lawyers will be able to get this taken care of ASAP!

Peach,

I am sorry someone stupid is trying even dumber tricks!!!

You recovery well, with such style and beauty. So you will be seeing the judge tomorrow? I hope so.

Remember I have that vest.....just tell me where to mail it - LOL!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

L.

Peachy,
You really do need to seek better councel. Your attornies are ... not doing their job to say the least.
Any decent attorny will take your case if it holds the promise of money for payment either from suing Jethro for it or from when they do and can make him comply or really go to jail.
You must take some responsibility for your own good now and at the least call around and check with some other attorney that are decent.

I am taking responsibility renee. And without any additional monies, how does one hire new counsel? Just a thought. But the lawyers are getting things going...Just found out that Jethro's attorney was outta town for a week (hence the guy couldn't reach his client or get back to our side) and he is urging his client to pay us.

Our side is good, but I am going to save more money to gear up in the future for a greater fight and will win definitely. Now's not the time as I need to get my feet financially on the ground.

And I definitely have done everything I can and am doing pretty darn good about getting on with things.

So we are awaiting the money basically. That is all. Jethro is signing the papers and we are going to file charges against him if he doesn't sign tomorrow. Can only file an emergency hearing based on breach of contract since judge hasn't signed it yet. I am actually the only person who's signed the settlement agreement actually. But Jethro is doing it and we will run it personally over to judge if need be so we can get him in full blown contempt before the deadline of next tuesday if need be.

I just can't believe he could use semantics as a way to try to weasel out of not paying us. Any guy worth their salt would just pay his family, especially if the guy was the one who lied, cheated, and wrecked his home and family. But not reckless Jethro. Nope. He thinks he's not only a double-naught spy and ladies' man, but smarter than any judge or attorney anywhere. And that is dangerous.

His hearing won't be until mid Sept. so that gives me two more months of peace from him and his ho bag, Ms. Family Values. I am going to let them live in sin and LB all over the place. They are destined to fail and I am just sitting back and watching. And the no contact is just perfect for me. Until the day the man finds where it is that he left his soul, I don't want any contact whatsoever. Thus, I will either one day have contact with him and know the man has definitely changed for the better, or else I will just keep on having peace.

Please keep praying everybody that we get this issue settled by friday as I don't want to get down to the last second as my nerves can't take it anymore. This is tougher than anything I've ever done. It is one thing to lose your marriage and another whole barrel of apples to see your former spouse go way out of their way to see you fail financially as revenge.

Again, visualize the future, and stop focusing on the problems J causes you.

I see you and DS sitting in the yard of your new townhouse, hearing children laughing outside. You'll take walks, and meet other families and make new friends.
Your new job will be both challenging and rewarding to you, and gives you the confidence and peace of mind that you've been lacking the past few years.
And you are happy, with yourself, your son, your life, your job, your faith and the world.
That is the future I see for you Peachy, and its just around the corner. The light is shining on this new life.

Dear Peachy,

I surely agree with newly. I believe your future is going to get better now. Stay
strong!!!
If you have to go through the
courts for everything from your husband
that he owes you, do it!!
There should be public defenders there that will be your lawyer for free, based on your income.
You usually have to apply for a court appointed
lawyer (public defender) at the court house.
You should not have to pay for a lawyer. Please
check into that.
Also you have to let your lawyer know that your husband is reporting falsified income. He might
ask for last years tax return, and if that's
falsified, then it will be difficult to prove.
But let the lawyer and judge know it anyway.
That is a must.

Sent with Love, Ladysheep

As hard as it is, trust in God to provide for you. He always has and always will. Give him your problems and let HIM fix them.

AMEN!

I make sure I thank him even during the tough times for what I have, even if it doesn't seem like much.

- Lord, please find a way to provide for Peachy in some way, shape or form. Let her know you are there for her and on her side and things are working according to your plans. Thank you father, in Jesus name amen.

Hey, I'm in atlanta too!

Thanks friends for prayers. Had a horrible night last night. Son was visiting xh and I went over to neighbors for a good cry. This has been a huge burden to shoulder. My greatest fear is that I'll have a heart attack from stress or something (my dad died of heart failure 4 years ago btw).

Thanks tossed, newly and eduard. Sorry to hear Eduard and my neighbor here in GA, about the situation. Ironically my xh started first doing the go out thing and his own thing when our son was a baby and very young. Could explain the behavior of the OM. Guarantee the wife doesn't know as I didn't for a long time.

Here's the happenings: got a forwarded email from Jethro via attorney. He is claiming that he will give the money asap after signing and asks for my bank account information, which he already has. There is a very good friend of mine that God has placed in my life and will help out with money temporarily until J pays and will only if all else fails in time (clock ticking)to do the rent payment. Thank God for good friends and for faith.

But it's scary. Jethro has in town visiting (and it'd better not be at his house even though I like her as it would be a settlement violation)his old secretery. She was a friend of mine and right after thanksgiving two and a half years ago, she was in a horrible car wreck with her newborn and husband. They were h.s. sweethearts and a sweet couple. She almost died and ironically was taken to the regional med cntr. back home where my bro in law (somebody she has met and knew) was her emergency surgeon and saved her life. Her husband was DOA and my bro in law worked on him for 20 min. even after he was pronounced dead. She's got 2 little boys. I kept the baby who by divine intervention, was not hurt, for a few days meanwhile Jethro was out having an affair with Monkeyho and I was home caring for my little boy (then 2) and a very sore and bruised newborn without any help. . A driver drove on wrong side of highway to pass 2 18 wheelers and hit them head on at over 70 mph. Anyway, she's in town visiting and in Jethro's email to me, he says that she says hello and wishes she could see me. I am amazed. Here is Jethro on one hand, being kind and helpful to his former secretery (don't worry...she's not his type as she's nowhere close to the maxxim model type)and doing fun things with her kids and being a "good guy" all the while withholding funds and support for his own son and former wife whom he treated like hell. So what's it? I know. It's about perception. See everybody will see how he treats her (Family Values included in seeing this) and ASSUME he's a good guy. It's all for show and it makes me wanna vomit. However, this person, his old secretery knows that he's full of poo and how he's treated me for years. He'll probably just lie to her and if I speak to her I will only say truth, not anything bad.

It's so funny but when he wrote in the email it was all like this: will pay asap as soon as we get the signature and that I don't want to not pay you and don't you like the new dentist our son has and all about the secretary. Like he's this good guy. He isn't. He is sick and his soul is sick with sin and denial.

Made me so sick that I wanted to vomit a few minutes ago after reading the email. I've been a nervous wreck and then I have to deal with a liar and an imposter who just looks like the person I married. He is in total denial. He's put this family through hell and he has the audacity to spin everything period to his advantage. He's not BAD for not paying us. He was just doing what was OK and what he PERCEIVED to be right. No matter if the words are clearly written to disagree with him. He's a good person, and let's say he's a GREAT MAN for playing good guy to the widowed secretary and kids. I am sure Family Values will forget all about the psycho x wife (me) who must have been such a horrible person that I forced Jethro to lose it and break into my home in May. That he's such a good guy to do all this for his former secretery. Nevermind that his xwife, me, was the one who didn't do much. All I did was make sure my bro in law did the best he could and go wawy out of his way to be an awesome surgeon and keep her baby along with my own baby when my husband chose to prefer to stay out all night and be at casinos with OW even when they were burying her husband. Oh, and may I add that I made without anybody asking me the programs for the funeral of her husband? Even had them printed off on fancy parchment paper. I wanted them to be at peace. So she the secretary knows the real truth. Last time she and I spoke, it was 2 years ago when Jethro took us all to 6 flags and the secretery was astounded that we had just separated. She couldn't believe it. She knew something about his infidelity but this must be a shocker to her. But I am sure she deep down knows what kinda guy he is. I won't spread it, but if she asks how things are I will be truthful and tell her he hasn't paid us, owes us alot of money and that will be it.

I am sick of his spin period.

Good thing is there will be no more contact with Jethro for at least 2 more months. So if we can get him to pay, then I will be emotionally free from the grip of this man. This will be good. In my response to Jethro's email, I wrote this to him. And mind you, the only way I will EVER have any contact (even after state lifts NC order against him) without any personal change from him would be short contact preferably by email about our child and nothing ever else. Here's what I wrote to him via my attorney:

" The settlement agreement was made in good faith and was a promise. However, this would not be the first time any promise whether legal or personal was broken by you. It was clear that in the agreement monies were to be paid to us with first payment on and NO later than July 5, 2003 and last payments were to be made NO later than July 20, 2003. There were NO conditions to be met regarding this agreement. It is very sad that you were not motivated to simply do what was right and put us through further financial problems just because you believed you had a right to do so. Nobody can ever justify what has happened or how we were treated. All because you felt you had the right to punish us and not pay us what was agreed upon because you felt you had a right to do so. It was breach of contract. Breach of good faith and breach of yet another promise. Life goes on, bills have to be paid and we are trying to just get on with things. There are some things a man should do without having to attach strings...One is taking care of his family, or former family however you should look at it. There should be nothing on earth more important, but this has been shown to be the case over and over here--everything being more important to you. Just because you couldn't honor your vows and dissolved our family doesn't give you the right to financially hurt me or our child any further.
I hope you had fun doing this. It was anything but fun for us I can tell you. There is no court that can award back to me the tears I have cried or worries I have carried on my back. Nobody gives you back that time ever again. Were it not for prayer, I would not be able to be standing right now. I do not wish you anything bad at all. This whole situation is what it is because of your doing. All I want is peace and to be away from everything. You know in the future the only way I will wish contact (you making some different life choices and faith choices) and that decision is not mine to make. It is yours. So do not paint me into something I am not. I am a good person who's been through alot and have just wanted nothing but peace and comfort and to be away from the very things, people and situations that have caused me and my child so much hurt. I have great faith and believe people can change and hold close to that belief. Faith can move mountains and even change the course of a river. And before change is made, one can only look at actions to be a watermark of just how things are. And the actions regarding your WILLFUL CHOICE not to pay us, speaks loudly . The actions of the last 2 years have spoken loudly also. Your continued actions and personal associations and the path where your life has taken you also speaks and it is my prayer that you one day find yourself and really get honest about where your soul is and who's exactly got a hold of it. If you were to get really honest about it, you couldn't keep on living the way you are and doing the things you're doing if any positive change. Instead, you have justified everything away and made what is so very wrong seem perfectly ok and right to you."

_____________________
nuff said about that. That's what I wrote and my personal stand.

And about the legal aid, here is how that is standing. Because I already have legal counsel, it is not valid. I can't get aid if I already have counsel. At this late date I cannot fire counsel and then go out and find new free counsel in less than three working days from eviction. That wouldn't be wise now. Attorneys are getting stuff done and it is slow but we should make the deadline. It is crap and it really bites, but I think and am praying hard this is over soon.

Please pray about everything. Pray hard. It is amazing. Jethro on one hand believes he has won. Believes he has. And he really has and that's what makes it so awful why he didn't pay us. He just wanted to exert that extra push of power on me since he can't control me anymore. He can't control this woman and when my son is with me, he will be in a good home and good life.

Joint custody stinks when your x's soul is Satan's property. But I will fight that battle in at least a year. I have to let Jethro fall into his playboy ways and live as he put it "like a rock star" again. I know his affair won't last. I know it. It can't. He's using Family Values to be the shuttle for his child, free childcare and sex, and to parrot his words since she's young and stoopit and doesn't know enough from life experiences since she keeps making bad choices herself (unmarried mom of a 3 yo at 25 and a model in a very risque magazine), thus I don't think I have much competition in the brains dept.

So today I am off to get ribbon for the fax machine. Then to do bills and to do stuff around house and pick up son at 4 pm and then workout again (endorphins make even the situationally depressed feel better ok?)so that when the NC is lifted Jethro is forced to see at soccer games a very cool and morally hip former wife. He will have to see me living well, looking really great, and know that he gave all of it up for sin. For sin. To live with a shadow of the woman that I am. To shack up with a woman that in the next 9 years will never grow to hold a candle to me and can never be the mother to his own son. He'll have to live with it and know he is powerless to do anything about it.

This am, one of my very close friends told me over phone that Jethro must be miserable. He has done all of this to himself and he knows that he painted himself into a corner, no way out for our marriage and maybe this financial abuse/emotional abuse now is his taking out his pain onto me. I am just glad the burden I have to carry is only financial. I am glad my conscience doesn't give me the kind of pain the burden Jethro carries on his back from his sin of adultery, abuse, disrespect, and ripping apart a marriage and family. I would fall under the burden of that weight. Only if he turns to God and changes his life will that burden andsuffering end. But I am not his whipping post for his heavy conscience. Not willing to pay the price. He can do time on his own cross now. He did the crime. He built the cross board by board and nail by nail and even got the hammer to do the nailing. Now he's got to feel what he's done.

I really liked the tread about the thoughts of the Ws's. It is right on. Like they go so far, do so much to the BS and family that there's no way back so they form even stronger bonds with the OP and fight us as a team. It is sooo sad. But it's a fact and true. They may be hellish teams, but we can fight them through doing what is right and fighting only just fights not every little thing. And in living well and loving our families and keeping faith in our hearts, we heap burning coals on their heads.

God will give me justice.

Peachy- Why give him the satisfaction of knowing that he still continues to cause you pain...He cannot change the wrong that he has done to you !!!Dont let him continuing knowing that you are affected by it... Let him know financially only... Don't tell him he will get what is coming to him etc... - Just let him live his miserable life and don't use anymore of your energy on him - You are done - he will pay eventually - fight him all you want on custody, financial issues etc... But do not let him know that he can still bring you to tears thinking about what you have gone through... Enough of giving him the satisfaction of thinking that you give a damn... Let the miserable excuse for a man go - Stop thinking about him - except financially of course... Regardless he is your sons father and that is all - even if he came running back tomorrow apologizing you don't want him...So stop letting him think that he has an affect on you at all....

Peachy,

Is the business he is in Incorporated? If so, an avenue you can check into is that his paycheck is garnished. I don't know about your state, where I live, if you get the county to garnish his check (they don't call it garnishment), and the company fails to do so, the company is looking at a fine for each and every occurance. Something for you to look into.

Otherwise, is there a way it can be taken directly from his checking account? There must be some measure in place for these situations where you don't have to rely on him sending you a check. How long will his partner be willing to help him out if the company is being fined for failure to agree to a court order?

Inquire with your attorney into this or with you local county CS enforcement office. In my state, it cost me 25.00 to fill out the paperwork and request that they get my CS and send it to me.
