Well I'm not sure whether to be happy or what. We still ended up having to pay the bitch from hell $6412.00 but I guess that's better than the orginal $14,000.00. She was caught in lie after lie, but yet the judge still ruled in her favor for one year of child support, which was the year after the SD turned 18. I don't understand it, but I guess some laws have changed that alternative schools are included and that's what the judge ruled by. But now we heard her tell the assistant DA that she would be filing some kind of charges on medical bills. This is where we know we can't lose, that is unless our justice system is that screwed up. We have proof of all medical bill payments made and copies of letters written to the ex asking for more information, etc. We also have proof that she has committed over $6000.00 in insurance fraud. So again, not sure whether to be happy or not. I am so tired and just plain worn out from this entire mess and knowing that it isn't the end makes it worse. Just trying to think positive and keep the hubby happy is "trying" on my nerves. Not to mention keeping our son happy! As I've stated before, "IT NEVER ENDS!" even when you think it's suppossed to, it doesn't. Sweetie, get that dang cement roller ready! Just kidding! But maybe not!

Your that much closer to the end!! It could've been worse..like you said...it might have been the whole amount, and let the stupid B**** waste her money going after the medical expenses she can't win..she'll have to pay your costs, (right?). Like you said..you'll win there..and she'll get stung for insurance fraud!!! That would be a BONUS!!!!

I think that you should be happy. Even though she did get some money, it is less than half of what she wanted. Plus she looked bad in front of the judge for all of the lies.

If you have all of the documentation for the medical issue then she can just bring it on!!

Hey Lyla,
Tell the old wrinkled B, to bring it on!!! You're gonna be fine!!!
Like I try to tell you about the court stuff, it always seems to come up backwards, and it's very annoying. But make sure that you are set up for making payments over time and draw it out. Make sure you attorney takes care of this issue for you. I know how hard it is to have to keep going back and forth to court with all the legal stuff, I, myself, just dread getting the mail these days, for fear of what might be in it. As we both know, you never can tell when dealing with someone who's a few sandwiches short of a picnic basket.
But we're all here for you, 'specially, me. I know how hard it is with your back up against the wall. But you're gonna be okay. I've had these kind of setbacks myself but just suck it up, and know that it's almost over. Stand strong and keep your chin up. You are very courageous, and your husband is counting on you as well. Remember,
we can get together for a roller party, anytime, anywhere. That perpetual motion feeling is often what keeps me going and keeps me in my happy place.....just think about it when things bother you.
Keep writing and let us all know how things are going.
With warm regards,
Sweetie
