Sometimes, if you have just enough faith, something wonderful happens. S15 did not have to testify, but was brave and willing if that's what was asked of him. I continue to have sole custody, and the Restraining Order has been replaced by the next best thing, a No Contact Order. We remain safe. A little shaky, but very strong. STBX-H was there with many of my former friends, waiting to tell the Judge that I'm a fruitcake (this may or may not be true, lol). He has apparently seen this tactic before, and he did not care. Opted to lose the boots, and instead wore a skirt with cute pumps that showed off the new tattoo! New start, my friends. God is good. Peace. love, Goldey
