Words from the Heart
I had a rather interesting experience yesterday. I received the court order from the Ontario courts with the increase in child support that was granted a month or so ago, and to my surprise, they included a full copy of the transcript from the hearing. I have never received a transcript before, so I read through it, and was hardly surprised to see that John lied under oath three times. Sigh...I got really worked up about it and spoke to my sister in law here, and by the end of our conversation, we both realized it was pointless to be upset when we knew we could never change John's nature. When someone lies enough, it becomes believable to them as well, and unfortunately, that is the case with him. I found out that I could challenge the transcript, and since I have witnesses for two of the lies he told to prove otherwise, he would be charged with perjury, but I can't do the legal thing anymore. I am so tired of it all, and since we are all aware that unless God performs a miracle, John will never change, I will leave it at that. It's so sad that things like this happen. I am grateful to be receiving child support again, though I have to laugh as I received $60 yesterday...??? Compared to what he owes, this was a drop in the bucket...but I won't complain, it could be nothing as it was for months!

Oh Amy... I'm so sorry you had to see that. I'm sure my ex lied under oath too, but in his mind it's not a lie. I suspect your ex believes his lies and didn't even think he was lying! =(
Today I finally got a letter from the Family Maintenance Enforcement Program, and they want me to get 4 certified copies of the child support court order from Georgia... I'm confused why that's my responsibility when I got a letter from the reciprocal office saying Georgia sent them copies of the court order... ugh... SO STUPID! I could just photocopy it 4 times and mail it to them... What do they CARE?! SHEESH I'm SOOO sick of the legal stuff too. I just started crying with frustration today after I got off the phone with FEMP cause it just doesn't make ANY sense... and I still haven't seen a SINGLE cent in child support!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Hey, do you know how many times I had to send away for a certified copy of my child support order for different things? Like 5 or 6 times! Honestly, and I tried the photocopy thing and no way, it has to be directly from the courts with a judge's signature! Sigh...governments...yea, I really wish now I hadn't seen it, cause it just made me angry all over again, but it's all ok. God is the one he will answer to.
that's so weird that my post came through anon... *scratching head* I signed in, and earlier it had my name, etc... very very weird... I'm signing in with this one too... want to see if it shows "anon" too... WEIRD!
