So after our fight Saturday night, I guess my husband really got to thinking about things. He thought about the pants SD8 wore from BM's (with the HUGE hole in the crotch). He thought about SD8 not doing her homework at BM's. Then Monday, he has an email from BM: Once again, not making any sense & threatening him with an ultimatum. Now, keep in mind that BM has already stated several times that she will not agree to meeting halfway for dropping off/picking up SD8. This is the **ONE** request my husband had & she flat out refused. She wants him to drive 30 minutes to pick up SD8 & she wants to come to our house to pick her up. (She's obsessed with seeing our new house!)

So this email goes something like this, "I'm not saying that I won't agree to meeting halfway, but I want you to call me. If I don't hear from you by the weekend, I'm going to refile the papers with the court."

My husband was PISSED!!! First of all, like I said, she's already said she will not meet halfway. Several times. She wants him to call her. He hates talking to her. Plus, why can't she just email him? She has no problem doing this constantly anyway. Do you think maybe she wants to talk on the phone so she can threaten him & not have it in writing?! (He wouldn't call her without recording the conversation anyway.) And once again, she's giving him a time limit on when he needs to do things. Who died & made her the boss?!

So after reading that email, my husband said "enough is enough". This was the final straw. He's tired of being bossed around, harassed, threatened, etc. So tonight he's emailing her that he's not signing the mediation agreement & that she should refile the court paperwork. Then he's saving all her emails onto the computer & canceling the email accounts. No more email! (I'm thrilled about that!) So I guess we'll be going to court!

We really have nothing to lose at this point. And there is a chance we might win, which would completely change everything. We shall see...
