Karma Bitches, Karma...

So damn it, I'm typing this on my phone because my stupid desktop broke & I'm keeping up my end of the writing every week deal unlike some people (you know who you are).

I got a bit of good karma a couple of weeks ago. I wrote last year about my struggle with my youngest child's father and our custody battle that ultimately I lost out on. I've been good, following directions, picking up and dropping off on time & being as pleasant as possible while speaking to him and his bitch as little as humanly possible.

Things were getting weird over the last month though. Evan was spending an increasing amount of time with his aunt and grandmother. They were the ones picking him up and dropping him off at my house, not Jordan. And I wasn't making the hour and a half round trip to pick the kid up at his house hardly ever. Weird, but not alarming. Jordan is a lineman for an electrical contractor, so he works weird hours.

One day a few weeks ago Jordan's mom dropping Evan off and asked if we could talk. Based on our track record I was cringing inside. Turns out I had nothing to worry about. Jordan's fiancé left him. I guess after four years of trying to change him into a bible toting family man she finally gave up. Heh.

Do I feel bad for my kid? Yes. He's three and he's ridiculously smart, so he knows what's going on. All of his "normal" at his dads house is gone. Now he's hustled here and there at all times of the day and night because of his dads work schedule. Sure he's with people that love him to death, but his sense of what's normal is gone.

The household once deemed unstable is now the only normal thing he can count on. If I didn't still owe my lawyer a bunch of money I'd fight to get the kid back full time, but I'm going to wait a bit and see how this all works out. Why? Because I'm not the vengeful, hating bitch that he wants me to be. Will I throw an "I told you so" in there whenever I can? Absolutely.

He was complaining the other day that he didn't have a sitter and couldn't go to work. Sucks being a single parent that works weird hours, doesn't it? He'll figure it out. In the meantime I'll just sit back and watch the drama between him & her unfold. We have quite a few mutual friends so I'm already hearing things.

The one thing that had me laughing my ass off was the other day, creeping her Facebook page, I noticed she got a job.... Selling dildos... I'm not sure what the bible says about masturbation and bondage but I'm fairly certain it's frowned upon by the church. Seriously? Out of all the jobs you could have gotten, this is what you chose? Awesome. I wonder if Jordan knows about all that?
Anywho.....karma bitches, karma. Treat people right because you never know when you'll need them to be on your side... I'm sure there will be a custody battle over the child they had together and I'll probably get called in on it. Maybe that's why he's being nice all the sudden....
