Happy what?

My VD was quiet until the ex started flexing custody-muscle* telling me I couldn't take the kid to visit my dying Dad. Oh, but he can miss school when YOU take him to Disneyland? People who think my ex is a saint abound (it's his carefully-crafted veneer) but there's a REASON we're divorced. Oh, yeah, he ruined the day, which was the point...

I will take him to COURT if I need to, stupid control freak. My Dad deserves to see his only grand-kid one last time, even if it means missing two lousy days of school.

Oh, and I've been hearing reports from the kid that whenever he misbehaves the new threat is always "you won't get to visit Mom." I LOVED his response: "isn't that illegal?" Smart boy!

Anyway, back to VD. Hope GG is okay...and hugs to everyone else that got strife along with the flowers and chocolate (or instead of).

* on the custody issue: I made a mistake. Rather than have a horrible fight, again, I caved. Believe me, I've been paying the price for that ever since. Non-custodial moms are viewed as pond-scum (abandoners, selfish, barely-even-human females), and "single-parent" dads don't have turds that have any odour. This I know NOW. But besides what it did for our respective social standings, what upsets me is the terrible stuff that he's put into the kid's head. For that, I will suffer forever.
