Between being super sick, school being back in, life going too fast, and just too many things to do and not enough time - I haven't been here to update for a while. Today, that will change for sure. I'm here. Kids aren't. I'm still sick, but it's all good.
First off...for those of you who have been trying to get in to read I apologize for you not being able to. I swear I changed my settings a while back so that anyone could read, but either I forgot to save or I just didn't really do it...lol Sorry!
Here's where we are now. I had the PFA (protection from abuse) hearing last Wednesday. I was so nervous. I was crying the night before I was so scared that something would go wrong. If I only knew how simple it really was gonna be!! I went in (late cuz I had to get the kids to school...lol) and my attorney found me right quick, read me the PFA order, had me sign, went and had the perp and his attorney sign, the judge signed, and the official copy was in my hand within 30 minutes of being in the courthouse. I think me and Missy (my best friend) actually waited longer for a sherriff to escort us to the car than it took to get the paperwork done!! Missy, God love her, is such a trouble maker! She is the only person I know who would actually get yelled at by a sherriff in a courthouse!! We spotted the perp on our way out...and of course Missy had to stand there and stare at the ass and make sure he knew what he was up against outside of the legal world while me and the sherriff got on the elevator. Missy had to get told by the sherriff to "get on the elevator" in that stern, sherriff voice!!lol Missy is just plain awesome! Everyone needs a friend like her! So yeah, the PFA is a done deal. Sorry bout his bad luck if I decide to go to Walmart and have to kick his sorry ass out!!LMAO
We had a party this weekend for my birthday. Built a fire in the backyard, made some s'mores, made too much food of course (someday I will get the food to person ratio figured out!), and had a good time. I got my first body piercing last week...got my navel done. It was one of those "have to do it for myself" kinda things. I had been putting it off for a long time, but with everything that is going on, I had to do it to prove to myself that I *do* have courage! And at moments it's taken courage to not rip the damn thing out!!lol
So on the table for this week we have...
Tuesday...I'm going to counseling. I'm going first so that I can give the counselors a little bit of background on the kids and what is going on.
Wednesday...We meet with the DA. FINALLY!!! This is the most crucial part of getting the charges filed. I'm glad that we finally got to this step. Also, this is maybe the last time that the kids will have to tell anyone what happened to them. This is the last time that they will be grilled about it for right now. Only if the dumbass doesn't accept the plea will the kids have to be grilled about it again. Part of me hopes that he doesn't accept the plea...only cuz I want him to get the max sentence. I got more in store for him too...and he ain't gonna like it!!lol But I don't want to discuss that right now cuz it's a secret...and just in case...I don't want him to know...lol
After we meet with the DA, charges should then be filed. I'm hoping that next weekend we can have yet another party...and it's gonna be one hell of a party!! But no matter when the ass goes to jail...we will party!! And it won't be no little party either!! I'm still getting the kids out when I can. We went to the park yesterday and they had a blast. They went to sleep super fast last night!! I went out last night, me and Missy had a girls night. But it was more or less for my birthday. All in all, we're still hanging on. I wonder how we do it most days, but we manage. Somehow, someway, someday this will all end. And justice will be served.
