Thank You to a Good Samaritan

I have made some dramatic changes in my life this last week. I found out through another lj user that since I no longer have a payee for my disability that I could, without BR's permission, claim the children’s disability payment without re-zoning the children’s school. So a few hours after she told me I had my butt at the SSA and had the money rerouted to my checking account. BR will be so angry if it works; he already is really, saying they cannot do that without his permission. He was even angrier when I told him that the money is intended for me to take care of the kids, and not his to begin with. I do know that he is trying to get them money back for himself again. I don’t think it will happen since our initial separation papers from 9 years that state he has custody have no legal validity because the case was thrown out of court because neither of us tried to pursue or close the case for 8 years. That means that he does not have legal custody of the kids anymore, and since I have them 5 to 6 days a week, all day long, I have custody. What did he expect that I would do, really? He has not been helping with any of the kids’ expenses, claiming that he had no money, that the bank is giving him problems and being mean to him. I personally think he is putting the money into strippers’ panties, or spending it all on PPV porn. However I did find out that he has 1500 dollars in an account under his mom’s name (he left the bank statement lying out on his dinning room table when I dropped by one day). Sometimes I just HATE him, but since it is the other side of the coin what should I expect other than hate. Now if I could only be brave enough to go to legal aid or attempt to find an attorney here in town that is worth a shit, instead of the one that I did go and see.

Anyway, thanks to this wonderful ljer I won’t have to worry as much as I did, I mean I am not free and clear, but things are better. Again, thank you if you do happen to read this, I do know that no one else would have done what you did, and I thank the goddess for your understanding, patience and information. I have never felt this empowered in the last 6 years. I also promise that the moment I do see the money in my account I will report it on the paper you gave me. I would love to see you in person to thank you, so maybe you can make it to an m-night so that I may.
