Update on DD's Dad

I don’t think I’ve been very good about updates so I’m going to try and recap the last week or so since Halloween.

So he showed up unannounced on Halloween. I called the next day (Wednesday) and he didn’t return the call till 7am on Friday.  Then he got pissy with me and told me to fuck off and hung up.  He called back, I didn’t take the call and he leaves a crass message about how he’s going to beat up my boyfriend and how everyone is just out to get him.

A few days later, he called again to say he was sorry…he was having a “bad day!”

Now, I don’t know too many people that wake up at 7am to a bad day but whatever. 

So, I’m behind in Child Care. I’m FINALLY getting the first full month of child support EVER..what a blessing that is – but that’s coming from DS’ dad so it’s a full month for my son…still getting nothing for my daughter.  I get depressed and my mom suggests I call him to inquire about if he’s working.  I found out from his grandpa that he has a car so how’s he paying for the gas and all the other things?  Well he just sounded WEIRD, like he was sick.  This was around last Thursday.  So say Nov 9th.  Again, that day he hung up on me all he wanted was to talk to his daughter.

He has not called to talk to her since October 30th!!!

Anywho – back to the last phone call. He just said “its harder to find a job these days” and he didn’t’ have much to say and didn’t seem to care that I wasn’t able to pay daycare.  He really just doesn’t give a fuck!  So I hung up and I’m not calling.  I am however sending him a long letter w/ a copy of the “pay or quit” for childcare and I’m going to hold him accountable for half of the medical bills. If he can’t be descent and have a relationship with his daughter, I can at least fight to get reimbursed HALF of whatever it costs for unpaid medical bills.

I saw his ex-girlfriend at the store the other day. She’s soo pretty and we talked about him for a minute. She said its been 5 years she’s been doing this with him and I just told her to move on – he won’t ever be what she needs him to be and she’s better off without him.  She agreed but I can tell she holds this hope he’ll get it.  She needs to turn and run and find a descent guy!

 

That’s about it for now!  I’ll update as I have more stuff to discuss!
