Ikes!

Well, the rain has passed in Chicago. I have to say, it is astounding to see all the water on the sides of the roads, filling yards, creating lakes and streams..........I hope everyone has a safe and quick recovery. Especially those suffering from Hurricane Ike in TX and LA.

Caty is doing significantly better. She is like a new kid. No more tantrums, meltdowns, phone stalking.........it is amazing. She still misses her Mom, but it doesn't come up nearly as much.

As part of the new agreement, we were to give Lucinda information regarding any school pictures. Now, she doesn't pay child support or half of the required expenses (because she chooses to be a deadbeat parent and we were happy to see her go to Texas to get rid of her and the damage she does to the kids); but she doesn't even want to buy the kids school pictures! She had the audacity to ask for one of ours?! Tell me, what kind of POS doesn't want to pay for school pictures. She has a job, no child expenses and is living w/ a guy who pays all the house bills. PLEASE! If these kids even knew what a loser she is, they would be astounded. She isn't on drugs, she isn't a drunk (at least not yet). She is just the most selfish human being on the planet. It is astounding.

OK, I feel better now. Well, Wednesday the girls go to therapy. Hopefully we don't have to do this forever.
