(pre explanation about the animal issue, my dd's 1 yr old kitten was hit by a car Thurs nite. He survived, thank God, but i now have to make a decision about a $600 amputation if his leg cant heal on its own, which there is a 30-40% chacne it will heal & if not, have it amputated, or have it fixed, with orthopedic surgery, at $1500, & its an 85% chacne the surgery will work ... if not, then have it amputated)


I dont know what i EXPECTED from STBX, but sheesh, what a miserable *@^$.


1st off, i am getting ZERO $$$ from him right now. Its my own stupid fault. The decision during the temp orders was that he would put his whole paycheck ($400/wk) into our joint account, instead of paying child support for now. I felt bad, stupid i know!, & used VERY little of the money he put in. Maybe groceries once - & then i paid his car payment once out of it. Other than that, for almost the whole 3 months he has been out, he has had NO bills, b/c i was paying his car ($220/mnth), cell ($65/mnth) & car insurance ($65/mnth) for him. But then i realized. I was feeling bad b/c he makes so much less than me, BUT, his expenses are SO much less. When i really looked at it, he is paying out WAY less a % of what he takes home than i am! -- so anyway, in the joint account, of of 5 weeks, he put hsi check in 3 weeks. And i stopped taking any $ out basically - or putting any in (i wasnt ordered to put my $ in). He was the only one using the account, & he overdrew it twice. So i told him "you are the only one putting $ in & taking it out, i am closing the account b/c my name is on it & i have paid over $200 in overdraft fees." He said fine. So my atty sent his a letter that he at the very least, had to pay his own bills now. (court is next week so we will get support ordered then). I then dropped M's cell, car ins & car pay bills to him with a note "i cant afford to pay these anymore".

When does the GAL make her final decision? What is her hold up? She met with you, she met with M?

She wanted to meet again w/ Mike after meeting me, saying "I need to discuss some of these issues with him, that you haev brought my attention to". & She is meeting with my daughter this Tuesday. Then we go to court next Monday, so i guess her decision will be in by then.
