I worked the late shift today and was all excited about being able to sleep late after I got the kids off to school. My phone rings at 9:30am and it's H. He tells me he was in the gas station and OW left a message on his phone to call her immediately and she was crying. He asked me to call her back and find out what it was about. (God I love that man).<P>So I call her. She's balling about having to move out of her apartment by Monday and can't get an apartment because of her bad credit. So she's sending two of her kids to N.Y. to her mom, one of her kids to the baby's daddy's sister and she wants to know if we can take H's OC. WOW.<P>I told her I'd call H three way so she can tell him. After she gives her drama, H told her we'd call her back in a while after he and I talked.<P>We talked and then called his lawyer(frat brother, love that free legal advice) and decided that if we took her it would be under the term that she give us full custody.<P>When we told her she broke out balling. All emotional about having to give up her daughter. I must be a sadist because I grinned the whole time! SWEET REVENGE.<P>She said she'd let us know by the end of the day.<P>Well all of a damn sudden she calls to say that the leasing office at her existing apt. says he'll give her a smaller apt. I guess I'm supposed to believe that she never thought to ask that question to the leasing office. What do I look like... and idiot?<P>This leads me to believe this was all a hoax. Then what happened later convinced me.<P>Tonight at 8pm she calls hubby to say I don't know what... but leads into the fact that she's going out to get a piece of [censored]. Mind you, not with the man she's living with. <P>I think she made this phone call to accomplish one of two things or both. I think she wanted to try to get him jealous and/or to piss me off because I specifically told her that I didn't want her talking about sex to my husband. B***H!<P>I haven't had a chance to talk to H about her phone call. He was in a coma when I got home at 11:45pm as he usually is when he has both kids by himself all night. I can't wait to hear his version of what happened.<P>You're probably wondering how I found out about the phone call. H and I's friend (play sister) called H tonight while he was bathing the kids and he gave her a brief rundown of her phone call.<P>Just another case of the OW trying to start some stuff. <P>But as usual, it just shows me how much she envies me and my marriage. She can keep trying because I know she will never, ever get me down. My H loves me and every stunt she pulls pushes him closer to me and makes him see her for what she really is... the snatch that trapped his butt.<P>LOL. <P><P>------------------<BR>Zebra Baby ...<P>Lord, give me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

Zebra, I know we talked about this already, but I just want to add one thing. This woman is all bull, but the one thing I worry about, she may get the reputation like the boy who cried wolf. So I hope when something really serious does happen, someone will believe her. Gabi1116

Dear Zebra,<P>I agree with gabi -- that woman is playing a dangerous game. She obviously has a lot of issues that she needs to sort out. Poor child is being used as a football in what the OW believes is a game. <P>I am glad that you are LOL at all of this drama because my only concern would be how you are handling these endless intrusions into your marriage. Keep your spirits high and keep laughing at this stupid b***h. I am so glad that your H sees her for exactly what she is.<P>Keep laughing!<P>love<BR>- heavenly

Dear Zebra,<P>Geez, talk about playing stupid games! Well, look at it this way...if nothing else, your ow sure is entertaining. <P>BTW, what is a "play sister"? I have wondered that before when I read your earlier posts but didn't think to ask then.<P>cdcollins

a play sister is a really good girlfriend that you feel like a sister to. H and I fell in love with her daughter at day care and asked the mom to go out to the fair one day. We all clicked. She's like our older sister and often is our sounding board. we individually share things with her. we can rely on her to keep a neutral attitude and give us food for thought. she's a true blessing and we refer to her as our sister and introduce her as such too.<P>hope that helps,<BR>natalie<P>------------------<BR>Zebra Baby ...<P>Lord, give me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

Dear zebra,<BR>Oh I get it now.<P>You know, reading your explanation of the "play sister" made me just a little sad. I don't think that I'll ever have a girlfriend that close again. i have friends, but none that I ever really invite to be around both me and h at the same time. and it's just because I don't trust ANY women anymore. i do trust my h, but I don't want any woman ever to have the opportunity to even get to know him, so socially we do go out with another married couple now and then, but that's about it as far as me feeling comfortable with women outside the family being around. and the married couple are mennonites and 20 years older than us -so i don't feel too threatened by her. Really how sick is that? ow wasn't even a friend of mine. but still she has caused me to be so territorial about my h that I deliberately prevent my friends from getting too familiar with my life.<P>You know I didn't even consciously know I was doing this until I read your post and began thinking about it.<P>god bless you, zebra. I wish I had just a fraction of your confidence!<BR>with love,<BR>cdcollins

<P>ZEBRABABY<P><BR>THAT WAS A EXCELLENT MOVE YOU MADE WITH CALLING A LAWYER<BR>AND WHEN YOUR H DIDN'T PLAY INTO HER HANDS WITH CALLING HER DIRECTLY THAT WAS GREAT! I AM GLAD SOMEONE IS GETTING REVENGE FROM THE OW!!!!!!!<P>
