Note: if you are an attorney or have any part in the judicial process. . .I'm joking. I am not planning to commit any act of violence against anyone. Not even my son, who was threatened with a rear end alignment if he got out of bed once more this evening, because he's already asleep.
But I swear, I'm still having to deal with NoNick about a billion times more than I want to, and if he could just drop a pair and deal with reality. . .but that statement alone shows that I need to deal with reality. Reality means acknowledging that NoNick lives in some other reality. Not mine.
So, I got the kids Friday. Except we had never gotten through the chore of dividing up the clothing, so I asked him to leave them some clothes on the back door. He agreed, and even said he had. And he did, but they were a bit. . .bizarre.
And there were no pajamas, let alone clothes for the next day.
So we had to meet at his house that evening for the kids to get pjs for their first night in my house. And for whatever reason, he chose to work until 7 and then run errands. So my kids and I were still at his house at 8:00 waiting for him to get there so we could get clothes for them.
Way to transition, right?
Next bits were similar. He said he'd meet me there at 4pm today to go through kid stuff. He wasn't there until 4:30.
Just wait until he's late dropping the kids from dinner on Tuesday. We've agreed that the latest should be 7pm. I dropped them off at 6:50 last week. Any takers on 7:30?
Eight?
Should we set an over/under?

Oy vey. Been going back and forth with a friend here about his custody arrangement and he has 200mi to travel just to get his kids (yes, that is almost exactly halfway) for his weekends. She does the timebender thing and pushes it at every opportunity. He's lost a week of his time with the kids to her. So far.
Best thing I can tell you after watching this for 3 years now? Decide what your tolerance is and then do not allow it to get pushed any further because if it happens just once, the door is open for it to happen again. And again and again and... I know you. You don't want that door opened.
Once you let them get away with ANYTHING, they'll keep pushing the ticket, like Birdy said.
They're just like children themselves. Idiots. Sorry he's still being a major jerk.
Stick to the paperwork. He'll never have anything legal to hold you to. You, on the other hand, will be all over his crap I hope with it. After all, he was the one who went apeshit with "The third thursday of every month after a blue moon with Mercury in retrograde for the eldest child and Parent A..." shit...
