3 Yays!

Having a nice peaceful week. Don is in Las Vegas/Phoenix area. He went on OUR vacation, although I decided to stay home. He took the gf, which I'm sure made it uncomfortable for my SIL, BIL and their spouses. I heard a few things from extended family about him being really wild in a bar, and spending money like crazy. No idea where he got it from. Nothing is showing up on my radar at this point. Probably got a new credit card and took a cash advance. Well, if I end up paying for it, it will come off of his tab at the end.

He was supposed to come back on last Wednesday, but called on Tuesday that he was extending his stay. All I can say is YAY! Stupid that I had to remind him to change his flight though. The only thing that is bad about that is Marisa misses her daddy. She told him that when she talked to him on Tuesday. When I talked with her about it, she clarified to me that she misses her "old daddy", not the one he is right now. I let her know I did too. ugh.

Our first court date was supposed to be this week, but it was postponed. Rescheduled to end of April. I wasn't really happy about that, but at this point it works. I can't get an official ruling to get him to stop coming by the house, but I also don't have to pay him a court mandated amount either. I can pay him whatever I think he needs to live. Which right now is nothing. LOL

The money is starting to worry me though. If I end up having to pay him maintenance, but don't get a similar amount in return for child support, then I won't be able to continue in the house. But I'm not going to worry about that for now. I'm letting God take care of that one!

The kids and I are heading to the Dells tomorrow for a visit to a waterpark. I have a meeting to attend for Wisconsin Swimming, so the room is paid for by the swim team. Another Yay!

Later next week swimming starts up again. 3rd Yay! It has been a nice 3 weeks for us off, but I am ready for them to get back into the discipline of practice. They have too much free time right now. LOL. Marisa is doing volleyball with school too. She made the "A" team! Thankful for that, since practices are right after school, so no conflict with swim. The only conflict will be games, but she only has 6 nights of those between April 4 - May 13, so not bad. Not like basketball, where she missed close to 50% of swim practices! But she is in 8th grade, and this is her last chance to play these sports for a school team, so why not!?! She is really good at volleyball, has a huge height advantage. But in HS volleyball and swim season are the same time, so she has picked swimming. I guess she could still do intramural if they offer it a different time, or just wait to until a little older and do a rec league, like I did.
