Well DH met with the lawyers yesterday and it turns out the BM should have been paying him CS the last 5 years almost 500 a month. He can't collect anything now. But, now that she has SD14 full time he owes according the the calculations about $96.00 a month. She doesn't realize that yet, since her lawyers and ours are playing chicken with each other. But, that is really far off of the $1500 she told DH she was entitled to. But, she only wanted $500 a month. Yeah right.

Funnier thing is when they did the modification three years ago, she agreed to pay for all the kids summer camps. We just put out $800 for SS11 to go to a nice camp and now she has to reimburse that. She also, sent SD14 to a camp at the cost of over 1000K and I am sure she thinks she can make us pay half when this goes to mediation. Nice try. She has probably forgotten that she had this put in, since she didn't want MIL and FIL to babysit in the summer. So now the plan is to send SS11 to a camp next year to learn how to design video games to the tune of $2200. She will have no choice but to pay for it. Lawyers are saying that it will stay in the CO unless she requests it. But, we don't think she even remembers it.

After the drama this week with her threatening to call the police and my having to document the entire conversation, it is nice to get good news from the lawyers for once. We definitely want it all settled by October if we can. DH thinks he will be getting another promotion and doesn't want her to get anymore.

I think she finally getting back some of the bad Karma she has caused with all of this. Now after everything and my warnings about his daughter and Facebook, the lawyers are actually telling us to print everything on her and her Sd's. They think that if she won't agree to our counter proposal when we get her first proposal, they want to force her hand. I am not sure how this will play out. My suspicion is that DH and the lawyers are thinking of going for full custody at that point. I don't think he is telling me that in order to not upset me. But, I know I do not want her back in the house. He was talking about if her grades drop in the fall, he wants to go back to court. We have spent 7k so far and we don't even have SD14.

I just want to see the proposal from BM and then he can counter it. But, her lawyer wont give it until he sees the financials and our lawyer won't messenger them over. So it is like a pissing match. Apparently these two law firms have about 4 cases against each other and this is the drawn out game they play. I really hate lawyers.
