Update on contempt and mediation...

On the contempt of court he waived his rights and it was set for trial for April 11...mediation was hilarious!!! I thought we would be stuck in the same room haggling over property and custody of dd...apparently the judge had given the mediation office a heads up on how volatile my STBX and my relationship is and we were put in separate rooms. I told the mediator that I wanted sole custody and absolute possession of the home...1/2 of his earnings since the skytrack hasn't been sold and he is using it to make money for "his" side of the family...that is rightfully mine because the judge had told him to sell it and he didn't...he countered with every other week with our dd and I could get 1/2 of the sale proceeds WHEN the skytrack sells...in the meantime he gets to keep using it to make money while he continues NOT to pay the maintenance and child support he was ordered to pay!!! Do I look like I have STUPID written on my forehead?

As far as him getting ANY KIND of custody agreement when it comes to dd...HA! HA! HA! My attorney spoke up before I had a chance to reply! He said "HELL NO"!!! This man doesn't make any sense at all! I could not believe the way he looked either...He looked like someone tied him up and drug him behind a truck...maybe this has taken a tole on him...you THINK? NOW, ASK ME IF I CARE? NOPE!!!!! I do not mean to be cold but, he hasn't cared about me or our dd so why should I care what is happening to him? 4 months ago, if anyone would have asked, I would have said I LOVE HIM and I don't want this divorce. As of today, I could and would NEVER get back together with him, ever again...I woke up and saw the light of day and I NEVER want to give him POWER over me ever again.

But, over all I'd say it went pretty well and LET HIS TRUE COLORS SHINE!!! They did today, and I am sure they will again!!! YEA for me and my family! Even the best abusers screw up!!! Him = 0, me = 2!!!
