Well, it happened again. Cam's ex-wife is suing us for the umpteenth time and I totally freaked out on my diet. We have been paying child support, sometimes late, but always paid. She kept "records" of when we paid late, and after 15 years is demanding we pay interest on the late payments. That, being compounded at 9%, adds up to almost $4000. Then Oregon Recovery Services is trying to make us pay 5 more months of child support from last year. It says right on their paper if you receive SSI (disability) it is assumed that you can't pay. Well, they don't give a rip and want us to pay up. If that weren't bad enough, she didn't even have the children we were paying for living with her! One was living with us, and has been for 21 months, and the other was living in Idaho on her own. So, I lost it. Fudge found a way to comfort me until I came to my senses. Now I'm not only bummed about all the money they want to steal from us, but I lost control again. I found out my dear friend has slow-growing ovarian cancer, and had surgery today. And then the news about Alan (my son). I'm feeling a little down, but my pity party must end.
Thanks for letting me vent. I think I burned up a lot of calories the last few minutes!

mom, why didn't you tell me about "B" yesterday?! How can she do that? That woman is so flippin' evil, does she have no compassion or common sence?!!! Cant your lawyer do anything?
Use all your anger and frustration and beat the crap out of a puching bag, or "run" away from your troubles on the treadmill, that will probably help alleviate some stress. I am sorry that the fudge monster attacked you when you were down, tomorrow is another day so put your defenses up and hopefully the monster will stay away! Love you!!!
I agree with Holly...run it out or get the stress out with exercise. I have always heard people say that, and the other day at the gym (was a bad day), I ran a mile and I just kept going! (well didn't keep running, but kept walking fast for 3.5 miles!). It helped!
Sorry that Cam's ex is being a turd. Man, she seems to have no heart!
