He's out on the streets again.....

Well, not the streets but an SLE...more like a homeless shelter says his sister.

I'm speaking of my son's father...my stbx-husband...he IS my ex husband. I just have to finalize the divorce.

He has a cell phone.

He called.

I called him back

He asked how our son was...."MY SON IS FINE" i told him....I was short, and not overly friendly.

He called to say he has insurance cards. I told him to mail them.

He asked when he could see or talk to him...I said I didn't know.

I told him that he left his son waiting. He said he knew...he read it in the report...he sounded defensive. Maybe I made him feel like he had to defend his actions. How can you defend yourself when you are in that situation?

I wrote my lawyer to ask what the final papers will say for visitation. I want to make sure I follow the orders. If he gets nothing, I will suggest to him he petition the court....that I am a LONG way from taking time to go see him. My son is thriving without the interaction with his father. To see him again and be let down isn't something I'm willing to do to my son at this point in time.

As I told his sister...."its the same letter with a different date!" Its all the same. Using, incarceration, release.....using incarceration release.........using incarceration release.........using incarceration release.........using incarceration release.........using incarceration release.........using incarceration release.........using incarceration release.........using incarceration release.........using incarceration release....

And I'm in that cycle but I've stepped out. I won't do as I've done before....he now has to WORK to see his son. He has to petition the court and plead his case.
