A couple things

It was M's birthday yesterday. I wasn't there, so I sent flowers to her work. We'll celebrate her birthday on Thursday when she arrives here. I called to attempt to have a conversation with my ex wife about my move and that we need to change the visitation and that it would be better if we just came up with our own plan, rather than go to court. I wish.. she called and left a nasty message at my home... of course she knew that I wasn't there. So, I called her back and she yelled and yelled and yelled... first telling me that I was a bad father, because I don't want to pick up the boys...that "You have to pick them up!!!!" then in the next sentance telling me that she won't give them to me anymore until... well... who knows.. until she gets something that she wants.

I know to expect theworst... I am going to try... it would be better if we could have a relationship that allowed the boys to feel more comfortable.. but it is very clear that if she thinks that it is something that I want.. she will be against it. This weekend.. she is screaming at me to pick up the boys, because she knows that I can't... then she says she won't give them to me on future weekends...what a mess.

Speaking of messes.... I am watching CNN right nowand all this news regarding the momument tothe ten commandments in Alabama. Have you ever seen those tshirts or bumper stickers that say... WWJD -What would Jesus do?

I believe that Jesus would have told these foolish people not to worship a stone... that monument is not religion.. it is not a sign of the end of the world. There are all these people kneeling and praying to keep a piece of stone in a building. Aren't there more pressing matters in the world?

The worst part to me.. is the threats and condemnation of those that are a part of moving this stone. Is that what Jesus would do? Would he hold grudge against people doing their job?

Crazy..... there are a lot of crazy things out there.
