I just finished haggling over visitation time with my ex for the kids this summer. I feel like I just had a long negotiation with a car salesman. UGH!
I am not about to give him exactly what he wants, because he thinks we are just waiting to work around him. Wrong!
I also did not want to let it out of the bag that we are moving into town during that month. He doesn't need to know until 30 days after the move is complete. (legally) Besides, he didn't tell me he was moving and didn't tell me he had moved until the kids mentioned it. So I am only treating him as he treats me.
He wanted them the first week of July. I don't think so. We will be moving. I don't want the kids gone while we move and come back to a different house. Moving is going to be tough enough for our youngest. That would be wrong. At least now, after negotiations, (HA! I was going to get my way regardless.) they will be leaving during the 2nd week of July and coming back the first week of August. Enough time for us to get the new house comfy and hopefully the old house sold.
We will be signing the lease on the new place this week. Hoping to get through the moving process without emotionally ripping myself apart.
