Thank you all for your support... LOL (sounds like a political message - I approve this message lol).
I am just going to concentrate on my education...just as I would if she wasn't there anyway. This is my investment into my future and my familiy's, and I am not going to allow her to influence me in any way. I just had a few moments of @#$%^&!*%%$(***% that I apparantly needed to have to get to this point. I don't know that I would have reacted like I did if what I was doing didn't take a monumental decision on my part.
I intimidate her anyway cause she can't control me - she tries and sometimes she does succeed (even though she doesn't know it - i.e. my reaction to her going the same time as I am). I am familiar with the college setting - I have been twice prior to different colleges, and I know the instructors, building, routine of this one because our oldest son and Cobalt is going there.. so I do have the advantage as far as that goes. She has never been to college and wasn't a good student at all in high school, so she is going to have her own set of problems to deal with and hopefully won't try to start anything. If she does, then I will take it as it comes - like I always do.
We know the lady who makes up the schedules. We communicated with her regarding the scheduling of the ex and I, and we will be going to classes on the same nights. I was concerned because we "hired" the oldest girl for so much a week, to watch the youngest, and if the ex had classes on different nights, I would have had to hire a different babysitter because one night a week she would have her visitation with the oldest. But that isn't a worry now.
I am prepared now since I got this stuff out of my system.
OH.... and when I graduate - there is going to be a bigggggggg party - I never had a high school graduation or any other graduation party - limited $$$... so watch out!!!!!
