first, best, biggest!

after 5 yrs of BS... I had my last day in court with my ex wife... this burden is behind me now and I can get on with life with Mrs. Hog...

I had to take my ex back to court to have the Child Support stopped she wouldn't volutarly sign the paper to terminate this issue which could have been done some weeks back... (few choice words insert here)

I also had (while I was forced to make her sign) brought up a few other issues she did not follow through with on the Decree... Lack of payment on her bill responsibilties... I also asked the courts to not allow her to desicrate my Fathers last name any longer.. now that my Children are grown there is no need for her to carry on this name and should take her maiden name back for the actions she has done while carrying my fathers last namesake...

All was granted accept for reimbursement of the 1153.00 in overpayments... and the Judge is looking into the lack of payments on the bill resposibilities...

169 consecutive child support payments and one kid in college and another one headed there... not a bad record I don't think....

But the Bitterness my ex has stired throughout the yrs is something that has scorned each one of my children and will be there for the rest of their lives... I can only pray that time will heal all this bitterness as it passes....

what I do have now is communication directly with my Kids rather then through their mothers interpretations and hatered....

WOO-HOOOOOOOO!

Free at last, free at last. Thank God Almighty, free at last!

You're the exception and not the norm!

Most women hold a grudge and make you pay again and again and....

Thanks All...

Gadog, I also have been assisting my oldest in college with what I can through-out... this was not in the court option this is because I want to see my Kids do better then I did when I started out as a Father at age 18... Now I will have another in college and I can focus the funds a little better now knowing this chunck of change if need be can be directed right at the effort to support.. one of the ex's arguements today was that she has paid for everything and I haven't helped with a damn thing.. that was quickly smirked at by the Judge and also quickly reminded to the courts by myself what was the 169 consecutive payments going for your honor?? he squalled her speach...

as for the rest it is a past issue and the focus now is the future...

I do have a 20 yr old son I would love to see finish his hs education and advance on with life.. but this is an issue I have to be patient with...

God Bless Ya'll

WOO HOO!!!

So when is the celebration herf???

hog, congrats!

i've known several guys who've been through the same thing. if it's any consolation, every one of them had improved relationships with their kids -- the kids were of an age where they could act on their own (and see dad whenever THEY wanted to), old enough to understand relationships better, and -- most of all -- they could talk to dad more and get HIS version of things -- not the "your father's such a )(@#$)@" version filtered through a pi$$ed off mom.

here's hoping things get better and better -- for your kids and for you and mrs. hog.

Hog,

Congrat's!! You are obviously a good Dad! I'm also in my 2nd marriage & have 3 stepsons. Being somewhat on the other side of the equasion, I can see what has made my wife pissed at her X. However, I have to say that she has good grounds for her anger. For starters, though he thinks he is "Father of the Year," he is mentaly unstable, having been placed in a Psyc. Hospital twice in the last 3 years so he can get his act somewhat together. He lost his job & was on Worker's Comp. for a year & drawing disability from the State & his company, but was terminated by his company because he could not provide a Dr's note to his company saying that he is continuing treatment. In additon, he has continually failed to provide the child support that has been mandated by the court, & is actually less then is the norm for 3 kids at his wage rate. He got an other job, after having been on "disability" for a year, and has again been "injured" and is on worker's comp. and riding the system for as long as he can. Though the Child Support Division is/has attached his wages, on Worker's Comp. they can only attach 25%. But, he doesn't care because his Dad, the kid's grandfather, supports him under the table. In addition to all of this, he continually, throughout the Divorce process, filled the kids heads full c@%p about how terrable their mother is/was.

Soooo...... It's been a tough road for my wife & me to keep things together, emotionally, psychologically, & financially.

Well... Now that I've wined (and dinned? LOL), I just want to say, again... Great job Hog!! Keep in contact with your kids, & I hope that you're able to re-establish a relationship with your 2nd child.

Neal

all I can offer ya is a Beer and a Fine Cigar LMAO!!!

Hell, that is all I need.

you still a repo dude?

Na Bass, this was the wifes job.. I was just the enforcer/driver... the person she was working for told us we were licensed as repo for repo.. well after about 4 wks of working I was still harping about the card we were to carry on our persons?? with that and him shorting her on her pay and lying to us about using their vehicals to repo.. we both decided to have him shove it..
I told the wife ya know what.. with not having the license and such as promissed.. we could of had our heads blown off and not a leg to stand on IE: trespassing etc..

I did however locate a buddy of mine who has been doing this work for years... he is now moved or joined in with another company in Northern Illinois.... he's more than willing to put me/us to work with a company out of Belville area and we would be licensed for sure.. this will cost out of pocket 310.00 bucks but good for any state in the nation... IRA Illinois Repo Association... the money is better But as with the other.. it was tying up weekends and nights and with the Teen starting school and all I would be the only one who could work the night shift or find a partner because it really does take 2 people...

So as of right now I have put the thought on the back burner.. working in the shop with some other projects and tinkering around the yard with honey do's LOL...

I built a dog house last week and will be posting the pictures... wife and kid call it a doll house without windows.. but hey I got 3 dogs and they need living quarters too... LOL

one things for sure.. I do miss that "Rush" of doing the Repo thing...

Oh I did pick up another Gig working at the races... AMA Dirt Track races that come to Springfield twice a year.. I'll be helping set up and take down the props and working the track... may even end up working this in Dequoin Il. also...

Hog
