Looking Forward

he’s back…and is still a selfish jerk.

Looks like not only is the ex back in Maine, he is staying less than 7 miles from where I live. With his mother. And his new puppy.

On Wednesday this was the conversation I found: 

• A
  any way you would be able to take me out to lunch tomorrow at like 1130ish?
• Dad
  Maybe, why what’s going on? I am gonna need to move my crap into my place at some point soonish though.
• A
  nothing, i just dont like frenkh and you’re in town haha
• Dad
  Ummm, in that case no monsieur – learn french so you can speak it when you go to europe. I should be in my house by Friday though in case your interested
• A
  I already know French and I have plans Friday Saturday but were on vacation after Friday so maybe Sunday-Monday
• Dad
  Your call, I am out the 26th-28th, after the first I go to bar study schedule. Also, if your gonna come visit I need a heads up because I will need to plan on the drive for pickup and dropoff in Brewer. Not pushing, my schedule is what it is right now though
• A
  Sunday pick me up at kams or shanes wherever I am

We all know the drill now, so when I see this, I email the ex:

X,

It has come to my attention that you are continuing to schedule time to see A with A, rather than with me.

Your last email to me said that our current court arrangement was ‘reasonable’.

The agreement is you give me 7 days notice of your intention to exercise your visitation, also that pick up and drop off is at specific times at a specific location. Anything not sticking with what is in the court order, needs to be agreed upon by both of us. As always, if the current Sunday – Wednesday doesn’t work for you, you just need to let me know and we can make other arrangements.

Thanks and Happy Holidays,

Stacey

When I pick A up from school this was our conversation:

“So, here’s the plan…There’s a basketball game happening tomorrow, which we’re going to lifting first, then Kris will bring us home after the game. Then on Saturday there is a hockey game, Kris is gonna take me to, then we want to go to Playland, and Kris will bring us home. Oh and a heads up, dad won’t probably talk to you, but i want to go over there on Sunday.”

I said “Ok, well as long as Kris is willing to give you rides, that’s all fine with me. And if you want to go see dad, dad has to email me. Simple “I’d like to pick A up at _____ at __:___ and will drop him off at _______ at __:___.” That’s all he needs to do.”

A said “Ugh, well I wish i had access to his email account, i’d just do it myself. Anyway, some spending money would be good for the games.”

I never heard back from the ex, but I did see this in FB this morning:

• A
  you will need to email mom
  you just have to say, picking a up at kams or shanes and bring him back to shanes at 12
  that’s it.
• Dad
  Lol, you know as well as I that that is never just “it.” Your funny though  not sure if my new place is gonna be available before the first like I was promised, looks like I will need to punt in the mean time
• A
  huh?

I’m going to hit the court house today and file my modification paperwork. I’m ready to get this show on the road!
