Today is an absolutely beautiful day! It's over 70 degrees, sunny, and warm! The mountains are snow capped in the distance and Denali can been seen (215 miles from where we are).
It started out as a great day until the mail came. In it was more BS from Jim's ex-wife. She has a ton of questions that we are required to answer. I have no problem with that. It's just that I don't understand the relevance of some of them and how it pertains to allowing his 3 sons to visit. Why does it matter if he has a driver's licence? What does it matter what church we attend? Why does it matter if we have firearms (locked in a gun safe)? Why does it matter if someone in the household was in a fender bender or had a ticket 6 YEARS AGO?
I just don't understand this woman. She has worked hard to get all of his boys to not want to see Jim and to be rude and terse on the phone. What is she trying to accomplish and why? I don't understand the poisonous attitude and the desire to try to hurt my husband. And I especially don't understand how she can feel good about herself and love her children by using them as pawns in some kind of sick, twisted game.
I'm so frustrated!!! A part of me just wants to wash my hands of this whole thing. A part of me wants to try and fight this and rescue those boys.
Anytime this kind of junk crops up, my stomach ties itself in knots.
I don't know if we can ask the ex to answer questions too. I would like to know if she's been to a psychiatrist and diagnosed with any mental illness.(During the divorce, both Jim and his ex were court ordered to have a psych eval. Jim turned his in. She never did.) And if so, has she been treated for such? I would like to know if anyone consumes alcohol or illegal drugs and if so, how often and how much? I would like to know if anyone in her household has any tickets or accidents in the last 6 years. I would like to know how she and her husband handle disagreements between the boys. I would like to know what church they attend.
(sigh) I just don't understand people like that. How do you deal with someone like her?

YYIIIPPEEE! I am so excited that your starting to blog! This is such a wonderful way to keep in touch. Blogging has become very theraputic for me. I also use it as my journal for now. I really enjoy documenting my days, in this style. I am so sorry that your going thru problems with Jims ex-wife. I have never had to deal with any of these types of problems. I have had my share of others though! I know Julie has dealt with them, and it sure isn't fun! Tell everyone hello for me! I love you!
Well you know how I feel about such people so I won't get into that but I think you should ask questions but I think I would temper them through an attourney so you aren't violating laws concerning defamation of character whish is probably what she's hoping will happen. I think she's a lot craftier or she has a lawyer that is than anyone is giving them credit for. So be careful how you proceed.
