oh, my bad...

i guess this week was all about taking charge and working through a few lingering anger issues.

i decided to email my son's tutor (and cc jack) when i received this month's bill and noticed she hadn't been paid since november.  i mentioned that jack and i were in the process of a divorce and he had ceased paying all bills.  i apologized and asked her if we might modify the current tutoring schedule since i wasn't comfortable with her rendering services without payment any longer. etc. etc.  we exchanged a few emails and discussed a plan for paying when jack and i had worked through the finances, each time making sure we continued to cc jack.  of course he declined to join in on any of the communication.

first thing the next morning i had an email from my lawyer who had forwarded a complaint from jack's lawyer.  it read:

it has come to my attention that ms. jack has claimed she has no money to pay her son's tutor.  jack would like her to refrain from sharing information about his financial situation with others.

i laughed out loud.  yep~ i'm sure he doesn't.  perhaps he was a bit embarrassed?  mission accomplished.
