First day of the new year and she's already at it. DH got a text from BM telling him she is out of gas, can't afford to get any, and so he MUST meet her FORTY FIVE minutes away (why she can't get off her fat a$$ and get a job to support her heffer-like self and the children is beyond me!).
Now, the primary location they usually do the pick up and drop off is one minute away. Since she got evicted, she moved in with a 'friend' (and still will not tell DH where that is) she has been driving the kids to and from their school, which is located five minutes from our house. We did find out that she lives 'across town,' however, haven't been able to get a straight answer from her or the kids (we don't hound the kids over this, just asked once or twice where they are staying). But I digress. She expects DH to have some form of pity on her and not really care that he only has 30 minutes notice to be at her chosen location FORTY FIVE minutes away.

What else can he do but go get them. This woman makes the simplest thing difficult and won't back off for one moment. She cannot support the kids in any way; not mentally, physically, emotionally or economically but expects everyone to feel sorry for her when she runs out of child support and spousal maintenance money for the month (maybe she should take a course on how to save your money and not spend it on stupid sh*t).

I felt anger well up inside me as he told me what happened, but I had to stop and remember that he can handle this. I don't need to take on issues with BM, even if creates a little hiccup in our routine. She is an idiot, and gets off on making others miserable. She will not do that to me, not any more, I will not allow it!! My SK's will be here this weekend and we'll all have a great time, like we usually do (totally optimistic viewpoint here) regardless of her antics.

Knowing that the kids are coming to a loving home, with happiness and reasonable expectations allows the kids some relief from the chaos that BM creates for them :0)
