Don't fight fire with fire, cause it'll burn up your kids.

well, the unthinkable happened. I went to get the rest of my stuff and one D and the W kidnapped them so I couldn't take her. I was then given an order of temporary custody FOR HER to have the kids. She lied about everything, saying that she feared the kids would be taken out of state.
I cannot believe that this happened and am at an even greater loss.
I know that things will get better but I'm so afraid of the girls. I know that things will play out eventually but right now...damn...

Bolt, while I haven't had any advice for you other than what others have already said, I have been following you sitch.
Seriously, it's time to fight! Your kids need you right now. Get a L and get going! Any W or M thoughts need to go on the back burner. Fight for your kids!

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
I've had an atty. The problem was today, her atty was out of town, so a different one took her complaint in front of a judge without telling mine. I have no idea how this all happened but now she isn't even letting me talk to my girls.
Who knows what lies she is telling them...

You don't know what she is or isn't saying. I know that you have said she lies to them. I also know that kids are much smarter than we give them credit for.
Frankly, I would be going absolutely nuts if I couldn't see my D's. I know you will do whatever it takes. Do it with a Lawyer. Protect yourself and them.

Bolt, you have a legal right to your children. She cannot take them away from you unless she can convince the court that you pose a threat or can harm them!
Fight for it! You have been such a fighter before, don't give up at this point!

life is definitely a roller coaster. I ended up talking to W for an hour. We really had a great talk. She apologized and said she was truly afraid I was going to take the girls. I assured her again that I had no intentions. We actually got along great for the sake of the girls and have come up with a pretty solid agreement.
I do so miss San Diego but realize that it's not the best place for all of us. Maybe when I'm 50 and just want to write, I'll move back and become a beach bum but right now, I'm thinking only of my kids.
I can at least sleep well tonight. It was so nice to talk to the W that I know and not this beast she's been the last few weeks. I don't know how long it will last or if I can trust her but I do trust in God. I do believe that this is the first step.
She is really turning her back on her mom. She kicked the guy out of the house and wants me to meet a nanny for the girls. She's even looking at getting a smaller place in July. This is all the right things. She even wants me to move closer so I can be more involved with the girls.
I think her dad got a hold of her and knocked some serious sense in her. She sounded very sure and sane. She was staying at a very good friend's house and I think she is beginning to get on the right path.
I'm guarded but this is what I've wanted too.
Let's see what tomorrow brings...
