So the mom and dad have 50/50 custody, week on and week off. It is very high conflict unfortunately. They are allowed to choose their own childcare for their weeks. Mom has a babysitter that is a very close family friend/best friend of hers, dad chooses daycare. It says in their parenting plan this -

“Right of First Refusal. The child will need childcare from time to time outside of routine supervised activities such as school, before/ aftercare at school, or other supervised extracurricular activities. Each parent shall offer the other parent the opportunity to care for the child before resorting to any non-parent childcare provider for any period outside of routine supervised activities exceeding six (6) hours.”

The other day the child was with the babysitter because mom was at work from 1230-10pm. Dad was at work from 730-5pm. When dad got off work he drove over to mom’s house (which is he not supposed to do because their agreed upon pickup location is the police station) and he took the child from the sitter.

From the time he was off work and able to pick her up (6pm) to the time mom would be home from work (10pm), that is 4 hours and does not exceed the 6 hour mark. How can he do this? Can he do this? She emailed her lawyer and her lawyer agreed that since it didn’t exceed the 6 hours then he is in the wrong. Mom also wants to have him trespassed from her property as well. Is he allowed to do this? It feels very wrong.

Please help!!!!! We’re heading back through South Carolina tomorrow and we’d like to try to find it.

Does anyone know if this perfume will be in the SAS? I want to try it so bad but don’t want to pay the price lol.

Does anybody else find themselves reminiscing a lot? I feel like I do this more often now than I ever did. I’m 35 this year and I look back on previous years and all the things I did or didn’t do I think about high school relationships and friendships and I often wonder how those people are doing and I also wonder what it would be like to see them and talk to them again. The last two years I’ve been going to a lot more concerts because most of the pop punk and emo bands I listened to in high school have been doing 20 year anniversary tours, so that’s also really made me remember and think about the past. This one band in particular was introduced to me by my very first boyfriend in eighth grade and it reminds me of him to this very day. My best friend and he went and saw them three times and I wished that I could message him and tell him, but it would be disrespectful to both of our marriages and probably a little weird.

Anyways, does anybody else get super reminiscent and nostalgic like this? I love my life and I am very blessed so it has nothing to do with anything like that. I’m not unhappy or bored or anything and my marriage is great. I just find myself remembering things and thinking about the past more now than I ever did in my 20’s.

Which website did you use? My friend needs help and it’s dire. There are so much to take in. The 3 that are available to her are A Safe Choice, Choices Rising and Abuzz.
