Well, I had to have the police call him to get him to text me and tell me when he was coming to get his things. I had two witnesses here to try and keep things civil. I had all of his stuff ready and was trying not to communicate with him. He then told my gal pal that my carpet cleaner was HIS and he was not returning it. I stepped out to rebutt that and smelled alcohol on his breath. I had told him NOT to come if he were not clean and sober. I told him to get out ...he said he was calling cops and got in his truck. So, I called the cops for him and reported him drunk driving. Don't know if they got him or not. Do not care at this point. Put the rest of his things that were in the house in my driveway and left him a message that that is where they are. It is snowing hard. I do not care. He still has a truck here and a truck tool box. He got his good truck. I am sooo done. There is no hope for him. I have to just have hope for myself and my sobriety at this point and keep working on me.
Have to finish an article tomorrow. Still trying to contact last interview subject...who is out of town. Good days ahead..as instead of crying and feeling sad after he left tonight ..at first I was angry..then I just felt relief.
I will be ok. Thanks to all who have commented. I am going to work on GAL. Also, am definitely going to go dark. He probably will only contact to get his truck and his tool box. And that is fine.
Good night all...I hope you all are having more success than I am...with your R's...if not...work on yourselves even more...it's worth it!
