Then do your part to make this happen.

I'm having a very hard time knowing another man is in their house. He's cooking them dinner, hiking with them in the park, playing with them, taking them for ice cream. This is a guy that THEY JUST MET! and he is seemingly taking my place.


Focus on what you can control, you've got some work to do and it ain't letting your mind run wild with this.

I did talk to FIL yesterday and this morning. He has always been a very easy going yet fair and honest man. He reached out to me yesterday and I was very appreciative. I told him that I'm sorry this all happened but he had to believe that I did everything to make this work. He did agree to that. He was also very upset that his daughter was saying bad things about me to the girls. I told him this morning about another man living in the house and he was very upset.


What's done is done. He know's where you stand, leave it alone. There isn't a damn thing he can do about this. Been there done all that. That's his daughter, and even if he doesn't agree with her, in the end it won't matter.

I don't know what to do.


Listen man, KIDS....Custody. Get moving and nevermind the other crap right now. Take care of this first.


Don't stand still.
