Update
A quick update….
D was angry with me setting computer limits so he asked to go to dads last week. I said he could go, though I didn’t want to. He was gone from Monday night until Thursday morning. It was rough. I emailed X on Monday night, asking for a confirmation of when he’d be returning D. And of course, X never bothered to email or contact me. Once D was returned home, X did send me an email:
“You had confirmation as you stood by next to D while he called me twice – if you do not remember him discussing it with you while on the phone with me I am sure he can refresh your memory. You were well aware of the times and insinuating otherwise is just a fabrication on your part. My number continues to be blocked on your phone, as it has been for almost two years now. You are not being honest when you say that it has never been blocked and the implication that I am lying and have been all along is quite objectionable and once again is an example of your attempt to mislead. I again reiterate that I continue to be blocked from sending messages to your phone and have been for almost two years and that you were aware of when D would be with me and when he would be returned.
Again with the communication piece, I am glad D called me so that he could visit. It seems the only times he is able to visit are those when he and I make contact without you as the go between. I look forward to him spending more time with me.”
In case anyone was wonder, he is still nuts.
When D came back he reported “I survived!” He also said it made him uncomfortable that dad had a lot of empty beer bottles in the back of his car, and that he smokes. In house. And in the car. He was smoking in the car when he picked D up.
D also reported that he still doesn’t have a bed at dads. Or a toothbrush, clothes, or pajamas. But! Dad does let him stay up until midnight playing xbox! D reported that he stayed up a lot longer than that because dad snores really loud, and its gross.
Luckily he has counseling this week.
My lawyer informed me on Friday that the court has sent her a letter saying our trial will likely take place in September. This is great news. We were originally told we’d likely not have a trial until January of 2014.
Otherwise, the summer is winding down nicely. The kids are ok. I’m ok. I really can’t ask for much more than that.
Looking Forward
