There will be no pet mouse in Texas

Posted on January 29, 2014 by Gloria Perez-Stewart • 1 Comment

I’ve been talking to Aidan about one day when he may possibly live away from me. A far-far-away day!  First he said,”Live with Dad”. Then I said, no you probably wouldn’t live with him either. Then he said, “Live with Mr. Johnny”. “I said noooo you need to think about AIDAN’S house!”. His eyes got really huge, I … Continue reading →

Go up in the cloud or go to mom’s, it’s all the same to my kid

We dropped the boy at his dad’s yesterday and stopped in to talk about the life planning we have to do. (Hard enough with one couple, imagine two!) As we were discussing possible guardians and living situations for the boy if my ex and I were both to die, I heard Aidan tell his stepmom: … Continue reading →

My ex-husband is away at a conference (or something) and texted asking how the boy is doing. My response: “Well, he set the house alarm off yesterday as soon as he woke up because he heard dogs barking and the sound machines weren’t on. So he tried to run outside to bark at them. Then … Continue reading →

Found a note just to me in my latest (used) law book!

Posted on January 6, 2014 by Gloria Perez-Stewart • Leave a comment

I bought a used contract book off of Amazon and reviewing it before Aidan comes back tomorrow. Ahh the joys of shared custody: I have him all day, every day this week and then school at night. Since I’m taking special ed cases this spring, I’m also getting client stuff done for GPS in between studying … Continue reading →
