The not happy thread

It's so ****ing retarded. Mum left a will in 2003 stating everything goes to my brother and I, but she failed to sign it before her death, thus it's null and void. My dad gets everything because he came across this will they wrote together when they were first married, a will that had been signed, (it's like 30 years old), which states that if mum dies everything goes to him and if dad dies everything goes to mum... here I was thinking that because they'd been divorced since 2004, that meant that will was null and void, WRONG. SO WRONG.. because it is the only signed will, and my mums estate is less than 100,000 dollars in value, I was told that there's no point contesting it in court, and that I should just give up and let my anus of a father take all that my mum left to myself and my brother.

thanks Bahloo and hidden. I'm much better this afternoon after a good few hours of tears and talking to the Health Nurse about the stresses.

Eoz, I can't even begin to say how sorry I am that your BDB (dead beat bad) has done this to you and your brother. It is wrong in so very many ways. I can't even begin to imagine how much you are hurting right now. I am really sorry sweety. You have had it so hard these last few months and I wish there was something I could do to take your suffering away from you and your brother. From a parental side of view, I can't understand why he would do such a thing. A parent is meant to care for their children and do what they can to make their childrens lives easier and be supportive. Not vindictive and cruel and the way your father is being to you both.

I just hope that you have got friends around you that can offer you the support you need. You are such an amazing young lady and carrying so much weight on your shoulders at the moment. Many people your age find it hard to cope with far less, and here you are carrying burdens that a young lady never should have to carry and still going. Try not to let your father get you down too badly, he can't take from you and your brother the most precious gift your mother ever gave you, and that is her love and her memory. Be proud of yourself sweety, because I and so many other people are extremely proud of you and the young woman you are becoming. Love and hugs to you.

 

*thinks your dad is an ass* won't pay child support and now taking everything. greedy effing bastard.

 

My dad's not an ass, my dad is scum. And yes he's greedy, he's always been greedy. There was a point where he had a heart but I'm pretty sure whatever 'that' was shrivelled up and died many years ago.

I'm still pretty angry about what's happening, but I have no choice but to continue fighting it until it is over. My dad may've won the battle, but he won't win the war.

 

Wow, Zoe, that's such bullsh*t. I really hope there's some way to contest that older will and get your dad out of the picture with all this. What a horrible, horrible person to try and do this to his children. I'm so sorry you have to deal with his sh*t on top of everything you've already got going on.

 

Eoz, I really hope things get better, way soon.

 

That's beyond evil. If only hitmen were legal...

I wish you all the best. Fingers crossed that he somehow has a change of heart. Or mind, even, seeing as he's already heartless.

 

Zoe, I am so sorry to hear about your trouble with your father. I really hope things can get turned around... there are so many issues with wills; I bet someone would take your case if you thought it was worth it. You mentioned a while ago that he was contesting custody of your brother --did that at least turn out for the best? I'm so sorry to hear about one more nightmare that you simply dont need. You know this, I'm sure, but it bears repeating: If you need anything that I might be able to help you with (even if it's just lending an ear), I am 100% here for you.

Something happened at my school yesterday that brought all the media reporters from their lairs. Someone even called CNN and NBC, although I havent seen anything on their web sites about it. As far as the administration and media are concerned, they have been calling it The Incident; that it was just hazing and bullying --and the phrase "boys will be boys" has been tossed around a lot. But the student body knows the truth --it's just that not a lot of us feel comfortable telling people what's actually happened. I feel violated just thinking about it.
Cant happen here, cant happen here.

 

Good attitude to have hun. Don't give up just yet, but don't destroy yourself in the process. Take care of yourself and ask for support where needed. lots of hugs!

Whatever it is darl, I am sorry you have been left feeling that way. There was an incident at our school once that was pretty bad, and the teachers were trying to cover it up and kept saying 'boys will be boys' but with the incident, it just made things worse for the entire school. Big hugs to you darlen.

 

I have a blog post in me somewhere but I just can't get it out!!

 

I hope everything is ok, Merc. I'm here if you need someone to talk to!

 

I feel absolutely awful. It's 4.30, and I just had to rush out of bed to puke... I hate being sick.

 

^ So sorry, Lydia. Feel better soon, 'k?

I'm just vaguely unhappy and morose. Dunno why. It's, well, depressing to be depressed.

 

Oh no, Soul Sister! I'm so sorry you're sick. Hopefully you get better very quickly!

I hate feeling like that.

 

I hear ya. That's how I've been all week. Can't find a job. I feel like a bum. It's depressing.

 

I hope both of you all feel better. I don't know about you, but caffine always helps me feel better when I'm tired. Of course it has its own issues as well... hyperactivity.

Get well soon!

I'm not happy because I've been manic for awhile now. Stupid bipolar disorder. Can't wait until I see the psychatrist on March 1st.

 

Finding out that a class doesn't transfer two weeks after the drop/add deadline really dampens my mood. Yes, I totally love wasting my time and money. Thanks.

 

Ouch, Steve. That stinks.

 

Thank guys... I'm still a bit sick, but considerably better than yesterday (and no puking anymore, yay!).

And that really sucks, Steve.

 

Today, the girl I usually watch was grounded becasue she attacked her "stepmother" (for lack of a better term) while in counseling. We still haven't recieved word on whether or not the actual mother's custody is being revoked, even though the actual mother threatened to take her to Egypt. This is turning out to be a mess, and Social Services isn't stepping in well. I know they do good things, but after watching my brother's friend go through what he did last year, with SS not being aware of the situation, and now this, I'm far from impressed.

 

Canada lost. Turns out, I can't laugh it off after all

 

Well, I hope that things go better for you all... I hope you enjoyed some of it at least!

 

So... I hit a bus.

Was riding my bike down the high street, behind a bus. Was probably riding a bit too fast and a bit too close, so when a pedestrian ran across the crossing ahead and the bus came to a complete standstill... I didn't. I smashed into the rear left corner of the bus at full speed and got flung off my bike onto the pavement. I don't really remember much after that until I found myself looking back at the road about four metres from where I got hit. Now everything down my right side hurts, especially my hand as that was the first thing that hit the bus. Plus, it means I've missed a day of college because the paramedics wouldn't let me go in. Ouch.

 

Ouch Dan, that's what you call bad luck!! Hope you'll be okay!

 

Right, my shoulder's buggered up completely now. It's taken me twenty minutes to get dressed.
