On this day the Lord has made . . .

As I was driving home from the grocery store I heard a man on the radio ask what we were leaving our children/grandchildren. He mentioned how he would choose, over any amount of money, the writings from his grandfather . . . if he had left any.

So, I have determined to create a diary/journal of what happened to me on this day(s) the Lord has granted me.

weekend

Friday I picked up the boys at Comprehensive Mental Health in Independence MO. That's where Chris was meeting with his therapist. Both he and Mary go there. Mary has them so bamboozled. I had to leave my seat and go into the playroom while the therapist and Mary were talking. They didn't ask me to leave. I had to because what they were saying was all so wrong.

For instance, Mary said Chris was sooooo depressed. He isn't depressed. He was excited to play with Luke and the other boys in our neighborhood. At no time was he depressed. He was eating well and playing well and talking. I'm sure he is depressed at her house having to sit there and listen to all of her craziness and drama. She expects him to act a certain way and makes sure he does act that way. She shouldn't be talking to him as much as she does about her feelings. She forces him to back up her crazy stories. It is scary.

I took Wyatt to see Michael and Christian and I had Friday evening to ourselves. We picked up Luke and they spent the night at my house. When I went to take him home on Saturday, Mary was no where to be found. She finally showed up at 12:30 - mad at me. She told me that Michael was yelling at her and threatening her. I asked Michael later and he said he didn't say anything. He had been avoiding her calls.

She does that all of the time - says people are hurting her and they aren't anywhere near her.

Another instance of her lies: She called me and told me that she had taken Wyatt to Michael and Michael was threatening to keep Wyatt and file for custody. I heard her Mother in the background telling her to stop that. Mary yelled at her Mom and told her to stop talking to her while she is on the phone. Wyatt wasn't at Michael's. She was lying the entire time.

Mary has filed papers against David, Christina and Michael saying they were harming her or threatening to harm her. No one has harmed her. She is making false claims. Surely that is illegal. I called Sheri and asked her what we could do. Sheri did tell me that when the judge sees the paperwork that the case workers bundle all of those claims together and sends them up. That is our only hope. Maybe the judge will see how crazy this woman is with all of her claims.

I can still see that time when she was saying Michael was hitting her. I was standing right there on the ramp to their trailer. Michael wasn't even near her and she was saying, "you are hitting me. Did you see him hit me!?!" It was surreal. This whole ordeal is surreal.
