Updates...

Well a couple of weeks ago I was frustrated with work amongst other things.

I had my court date on Monday only to get all the way into LA to be told that the window of opportunity for child support had just closed on a case I purposely closed more than 2 years ago. The lady just looked at me and couldn't figure out why I didn't want to Jane anything to do with re-opening a new case.

Sometimes things are better left the way they have been instead of opening up a new can if worms. It's true the kids haven't seen their dad for almost 3 years. Do I care? Not really. He has never in the past 5 years supported these kids, hasn't called on their birthdays, Christmas etc for that same amount of time. He always seems to call once a year to let me know his new phone number, other than that I never hear from him.

So do I wish to find him for CS? No.
He's made his bed so to speak, and it's basically up to him to make contact with his kids, should he ever want to hold up his end if the bargain.

In the meantime I believe that The Lord gave both Marc and I our steady jobs at Disney that He will provide for all of us through.

PMS and other things

I'm really in a crappy mood. I'm not happy at work. I'm getting less lead shifts and I font know exactly why, and I am scheduled next Monday on my day off mind you that now I have to call out of.

I'm really trying not to worry about the finances and such because I know that The Lord is in control of providing for us, but it just bothers me that I am now going to end up short on my check because my manager decides to work me. I can't go in because its the only day in the week that the kids get out early and there is no one else to pick them up. I do not want to have to delve into my vacation because I am going to have to use it on the 28-29 as I have to go to court on the 29th, but I have to take Sunday the 28th off because I won't be able to work on Sunday til 02:00 and Marc til 03:00 or later and then be in downtown LA at 08:00 for court.

I'm just so irritated with it all.

A Necessary Evil

Today I received papers in the mail to appear in court on the 29th of this new month. It seems that the state is pursuing child support from my ex for me. This comes as a surprise for me as I finally gave up on my ex ever paying me anything for the kids. So for the past three years since my divorce I have been along with Marc's help supporting the kids on our income. And that's getting tougher with every passing day in this state. So maybe this is a good thing. But I still hate going to court and I have to be there at 8 am sharp in L.A. Which means I need to take Sunday off from work, because I wouldn't be able to drive there on 2 hours of sleep. But thankfully, Marc will be going with me, so that's good. But yeah... That's what's to come.
