And it will "show up" as a good guy doing what he believes and knows to be right. About the only thing done "wrong" would be driving by the place, and as Cory says, it's on a main, central road. If I were in his shoes, I could easily live with that.
Cory, you've shown your character on these forums many times. Your love for your daughters is obvious, and comes through in your posts. Your daughters -know- you love them to pieces, and only want what's best for them. I know you know this, but they have to deal with only hearing the negative crap about you, from the ex and inlaws. That's tough for a child to deal with, even when they know it's not true. They're already at a confusing enough time of life, and this just adds to all that. Just keep on loving them unconditionally as you're doing. They know the truth, and after a while nothing your ex or her family does, like cutting you down, or bribing them, or harassing the girls about you, will make any difference to them whatsoever.
On a happier note, I know you're going to have an incredible weekend with the girls. I will keep you and them in my prayers, my friend.
PS. I'm curious... how tall are ya? I'm thinking you gotta be a BMF when guys in jail comment on it.
thank you for sharing your story. as a kid my parents did the messy divorce, used us as pawns (all my mother) and my father never siad one disrespectful word to us about her. the example he set for me in raising my boys is one that i think about daily. ill never understand where he got the paitience to deal with us kids, but he had it. there were times when we wouldn't get to see him for months on end, and my mother would tell us that we just werent important enough, or have us get ready and then he wouldn't show up, there were several years of these games, and after i graduated i moved into his house untill i turned 18 and joined the marines. when i got out of the military i moved back in with him and my little brother who was living there. we had 4 years of living together to build the relationship we wanted before he was dagnosed with terminal lung cancer. He passed away 6 days after i got married. every day i regret that he isn't here, but i'm thankful for the time we did have.
no matter what thier mother says, they will have thier own ideas and opinions and it's more than likely at 12 and 14 they are all ready well on thier way to being formed about you. so keep on trucking. as they say. and in 4 more years when the odest says dad will you pay for my college, say sure. and haull more cars cause books aren't cheap.
church. it's like family, but closer. when your sick family may call to see how your doing, but church people will bring you dinner or take the kids to school. in dec 08 we had a house fire which was a total loss, thanks to our church within 24 hours we had a apartment, clothes and furnature. it's the kind of place where you won't be judged (even if you show up in greasy overalls). the value of the couple of hours that you spend on sunday cannot be measured with human hands.
zito your comments are almost like your in that house, i only know it because ive sat at the same table hearing them talk about the other guys, im assuming you want know my height because of my weight, im really a short guy for my weight but somewhere between 5-10 5-11, i don't take many pics but dad took this one of me when i was loading a nailgun, that's a bostich framing nailer not a finish nailer i guess compare it to my forearm it will give you a good idea.
edit, also those are true 2x6 boards that i cut on my sawmill

Cory i am truly sorry for the badtime you had to go thru. Its sounds like your ex-inlaws are a piece of work and I would recommend that you keep your distance as much as possible. I reserve comment on the ex since at one time you loved each other enough to bring your beautiful kids into this world, so at least she did that much for you. Keep your head up and I am sure all things will work out in the end. I have a 12 year old daughter and she likes to push the envelope with me as well. Its part of growing up I guess and the best we can do is guide them in the right direction and lead by example. Hopefully soon the only example they will be following is yours and not the people they are living with now. Good luck my friend and I hope its all sunshine and smiles this weekend for you and the girls.

NEWBS READ THIS THREAD ABOUT REFINING!!!!

Be carefull Cory, it looks like your about to nail your taters.LOL
I think "stout" would be a good description! And nice timbers there. They look like oak? I swoon over hardwood timber like that. Heck, even Douglas fir is almost an exotic hardwood here now, instead of "just" being structural lumber. $7 per lineal foot of 1x6", when 16' 2"x12" used to go for $0.70 a foot. Oh well, we'll never run out of poplar, I guess.
Sorry for the thread derail =)
When I was looking at a car hauler recently and had a question about axle placement I sent a PM to Cory for his opinion and to my surprise rather then answer in a PM he called me. Great guy to have on your side...his ex in-laws are missing out.
New laws going into effect here in Colorado about owning firearms if you have a domestic violence arrests...I would caution everyone to be careful.

Cory, sorry you have in laws like that man. I have read just about every single post you have ever posted, and I for one can say that all those allegations, I know would never be true!
Happy to hear that things worked out for you my brother. Keep your chin raised high, and go grab your girls, and have a wonderful weekend!

May I suggest counseling? Your daughter is at that age where you will probably see this kind of behavior again and you may be tempted to respond to it the same way again and so forth and so on. You need to widen your parenting repertoire before something much worse happens (wait till she starts dating!). If you can't afford it there are often community mental health centers that are income based.

in today's nanny state/politically correct world ,where justice is usually only what you can afford yours is a tough situation,
sometimes you can take take "trailer trash/ghetto" out of the person but usually you cant.
obviously they are not very integument people if all they can think of to do is sit around the table and talk about other people. I know these kind of people well, and I sort of know you. so just simply be smarter then they are , and when this type of situation arises just beat them to the authority and show them (the authority s) you are trying to do the right thing.
Don't play the nose pickers game they have had a life time of practice.
get to the "authority s" first when a situation arises show the home services people and the police you are trying to do the right thing, Even I am not beyond doing a little but* kissing when absolutely necessary. just my .02

"anyone who thinks scrappin is easy money ain't doin it right!"
thanks olddude, yea they have lots of practice and I couldn't try to keep up if I wanted.
tonight went better than I could have expected, the ex showed up earlier than expected and was actually supportive, at first they were not wanting to get out but I told them their cousin would be their in a few minutes and that helped. me and my oldest talked for a few minutes by ourselves and I even got a little smile outa her, then I talked to my youngest and it was easy. we ate pizza and wings from foxs pizza and at first the oldest didn't want to eat but after 10 minutes give or take she asked for a plate. my youngest and my nephew played outside after we ate and my oldest went to the living room and played on her phone, I give her a few minutes and went in there and talked to her some more, I mostly got short answers which was still good for me. she asked me if I could find an old game for her she used to play call LETS RIDE on the ps2, I got home and found the game but I couldn't fnd a ps2 but ill pick one up at my buddies pawn shop tomorrow, she wants to play it this weekend. my mom gave them each a manicure set she had picked up at a health fair this week and they liked them. the ex showed up late about 8:25 so I got to keep them a little longer but they were ready to leave at 8. again im very happy the way it went, I think this weekend will be a little better. I want to thank EVERYONE on here for their support, you guys have helped me more than you know
with the girls you need to keep one thing in your heart and mind, in their eyes no matter what, YOU, will always be dad,
Not sure if someone said this yet. My friend would have the police meet him at his ex's everytime he picked up the kids. This way
nobody was able to pull anything.
wowwow cory sorry to hear about all this
btw the above statement is not actually true in nj you can pay to have the police escort they take o off duty cop whgo wants to make some extra $$$ and give him $40 an hour
