Well, I guess I should update my sig line. No laws have been broken. Apparently in Oregon, you can push people around and as long as you don't break any bones, or leave bruises, it's okay. The Deputy is simply following the law. It sucks. Pretty much Hus has to take a swing at me, and either connect, or have his kids witness it. And I'm not in the mood for that today, or any day. So he gets away with it. Monday, Child Protective Services steps in. No offense to anyone in DHS, but they are useless. I sent this to my BFF this morning...perhaps it will help. I'm sleepy, going to turn in early. All the local shelters are full, holidays you know. Good Night everyone, talk to you when time allows. Thanks for riding this rollercoaster with me. love Goldey ***************************************************** S16 did a 100% fantastic job w/ Deputy yesterday. Friend/Former Mediator came along for moral support. Deputy spent 2 hours interviewing him, but there is not enough evidence to support an arrest warrant. We need bruises, witnesses. S16 needs more than I am able to give him. DHS will interview him on Monday, probably at school. I'll be at work and not really available for anything until late Tues or possibly Weds. Tonight is my last night at the swanky hotel. I love it here. But it is time for me to move on. Shelter has expanded their search to include Seattle and Salem. Taking LOA beginning 1/11/10 starting to sound reasonable. Will try to explore on Tuesday. Trying to limit my walking, as R ankle still having pain off/on. No Booze, No Men. Just Goldeylox, and her three bears. I miss my bears. And you. hugs, love and kisses, Goldey
