I haven't been working out at all this year. I feel kind of bad having the weight loss ticker on my page, even if it is moving in the right direction. I lost another pound. Why? Maybe I'm wasting away due to stress. Maybe its because everything I put into my mouth tastes like ash. Maybe its because when I wake up in the morning, there is a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach that doesn't go away till afternoon. Maybe its because whenever I even think of the words "custody," "court," "petition" and "child support enforcement," there is no room in my body for anything else besides pain.

I am so sorry =( You've had way too much drama this year already and we're only a few weeks into it. Don't feel too bad about the work-out thing, I haven't worked out in two weeks; mostly because I'm working all the time. Anyways, see you later tonight =)
There's a reason the courts get involved in child support cases-- it's because there's lots of dudes out there who are good at making babies but not good at supporting them. You are not alone, it is not your fault this is happening, and the guy needs a slap in the face, hopefully backed by a court order or some such, to step up and act like a man. Just be glad the munchkin has you for a role model to remind her that not all adults are deadbeats. Hang in there!
Sweetie, I don't know what the laws are there, but you're in the right position. Keep your chin up. I'm sorry you have to go through this.
