Dear friends, Grace, OwnIt, DnJ, thank you for checking up on me.

It did not go well followed by some dentist trauma and a horrifying noro virus but my motion is still not filed so I don't know what is going to happen. I have been working on the affadavit this wekeend as we decided to revise the motion to ask for injunction against him moving back as they are back to the extortion games -- e.g., if you don't give us more money, he will move back on Jan 31.

Didn't have it in me to update when there is so much unknown. And like I said, meeting Grace in person made these web-only relationships feel kind of sad so without actually planning on it I have been just thinking on my own. Lent is coming so there will be a big break for me anyway.

Suffice it to say, it was awful but my new lawyer, though an a##hole and not very nice to me, is an a##hole who knows how to fight for me. It just might be too late to change anything.

I did succeed in renting out my apt in order to take the kids to FL and it was AMAZING. I was so happy there.

Cream and sugar for sure, DnJ, I am lifting a mug of it to you right now. It's spring weather here but I do think of you whenever any heater in either place does anything noticeable. Mostly wishing I could ask you about it and you could tinker about the place in exchange for some naimmoooooannamaooo bars.

Love to you all. Thanks so much for checking on me, seriously.


I believe I will see the bounty of the Lord in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord with courage.
Be stouthearted, and wait for the Lord.
