Hi Ladies! You all will be happy to know that I have set my consultation appointment with a lawyer..........FINALLY!


I was trying to wait until after my new pdoc appointment - as I wanted to try to get myself together as best as possible but recent events made that all but impossible.


After xh told me when ds was in the hospital that I wouldn't be getting my 2nd check for December, he turned around at Christmas and graced me with a box of candy. To many I'm sure that sounds trivial, maybe even nice but it was shere manipulation. He suspects I'm going to take him to court and by giving me a gift he knew he could work on my guilt. Which almost worked. However, I learned last night that my January support is going to be "late." After putting my fist through a wall, I decided maybe waiting was not in my best interest.


So, I swallowed my pride and went to my mom and asked her if she would loan me the money. As most of you know that was the last thing I wanted to do, but at this point, I have no choice. She has agreed, so this morning when I got home I called the lawyer (and this one is a shark) and I have a consultation set with her on Monday.


The process has begun. Wish me luck:) And, most of all..........thank you for your patience and support!


Hugs,
Traci

>>>> you sound strong, and alive and pissed off (which you need to be by the way)....oh I can't believe it....the real Traci has stood up<<<<


Being manic has its advantages;) Let's just hope it holds out!!!!!! Some people have deer heads mounted on their walls...........let's just say I have my own vision of what I'd like to see hanging on the wall! And this lawyer has the reputation of doing just that. Thanks for the votes of confidence;)


Love U 2
