Being a Mom

Mini update re: child custody.

February 5, 2012

There isn’t much new actually but I thought I’d post a quick mini update. Got a notice in the mail this week from the judge dismissing my petition. I knew this would happen, because remember they denied my request to waive the filing fee. I didn’t send the filing fee so they did not...

Little bit of good news.

January 20, 2012

Yesterday I downloaded NH’s “Petition to Terminate Parental Rights” form. I will filling it out and when I came to #8 I was a little confused: The court has jurisdiction because the child is present in the State or is in the legal custody or legal guardianship of an authorized agency located in the...

The Book.

I feel the need to explain the “he took a twelve hour job” part. Matthew once asked his grandmother (bio-dad’s mom) why he never gets phone calls. That is what she told him “he works twelve hours and he’s just so tired all the time.” For the record he does not work twelve hours…...

January 18, 2012

It seems like in 2012 my blog is going to be all about struggling to get sole custody of my kids and arguments with my ex-husband. Sorry for that, but I need a place to vent. The kids have had no contact with their “father” since Gillian’s contact with him on Facebook nine days...

I feel like I am wasting my time.

January 3, 2012

Returning to our regularly scheduled program.

January 2, 2012

I disappeared for a while, I know. I’m not the best consistent blogger there is apparently. Life keeps getting in the way, but I’m not complaining. Bryan came home in mid-November, in time for Thanksgiving. He’s was on leave for 15 days and has been on half-days ever since. Tomorrow he goes back to...

Am I a bad mother? Nope, but I know someone who is.

October 19, 2011

You know you’re a bad mother if you: Call your child an IDIOT Often to her face, sometimes in front of her friends Call your child STUPID Often to her face, sometimes in front of her friends Ask your child “Are you fucking stupid?” Either alone or in front of other people and her...
