It is snowing here… not a blizzard, mind you…. but it is snowing… and we are in a southern state (TN) <p>OW calls and leaves a voicemail on H’s cell phone… “Its getting bad… and I don’t want to get OC out in this mess. I am not getting out after dark.” Oh there is more.. but I am too angry to go into that…<p>H calls her back… “Let me pick her up early then.” OW “You got her early at Christmas.” H “You agreed to that.”<p>ETC… ETC… Back and forth… UGH<p>Anyway… the sitter doesn’t want H at her house… and she is 8 months pg.. (OW has said this one since the conference day back in Oct) and BB has called her attorney.<p>I called OUR attorney… she said that there is no reason why she can’t get the baby to H… and if she doesn’t allow him to pick her up, anywhere... then she will file contempt charges tomorrow… that will bring up the other 3 times as well… what a catharsis… I wanted her to mess up... but I never expected it this way!!!<p>They hadn’t closed schools at the time… but now they are closing early… now I am waiting for our attorney to call us back… hopefully in the next half hour.<p> OOOOOH, I HATE HER!!! I know that is a strong word... but its true right now!

Talk about games... OW calls at 6:25pm (pick up time is 7:00) and asks H if we can meet her at the pick up place ASAP. She was on her way and didn't want to wait around for 20-30 min. <p>We got there and waited for her. She got there and hurriedly got the baby out of the car.. yet, took her time letting H go to put her in the car. <p>OW told Lil Bit to kiss her bye... but Lil Bit leaned away from her. OW said, "Then I will take them" and reached up (H is 6'1", OW is about 5'4") and pulled Lil Bit's face down to kiss her. Lil Bit squirming away from her as much as possible. <p>Then she hurriedly got in the car and immediately got on the phone. Weird... She didn’t even drive off like she normally does… she sat there in the parking lot until after we left.<p>H said that OW even made sure to rub herself up against his hand… UGH… the slut… [img]images/icons/mad.gif" border="0[/img] <p> Anyway… the drama of today is over… Thanks for listening…

Stacia lee,<p>I don't think you are overreacting... And like you said, "the drama of today is over", thank God. The feelings you have are legitimate and they are just ow ploys, no matter how small, to really piss us off. All it takes is one voicemail or one small stunt and we feel invaded, which we are. This is no way 'normal' stuff that we are all dealing with, and it is only by the wonderful grace of God that we handle ourselves in a virtuous, Christ-like manner in front of these women. Just remember that no matter how difficult the days get or how trying circumstances are or are going to be, what matters most is that God smiles down on you for your kindness, humbleness and self control. He frowns on ow and HE WILL DEAL with a mean, evil-motive driven heart. <p>Take care and God Bless, Julia<p>[ February 07, 2002: Message edited by: mnca6713julia3 ]</p>
