Thank you for all of your support. You all will never know how much your support has helped me.

Now onto the good part. She was served with divorce papers yesterday afternoon by the county sheriff, dropped a few F bombs on him and left. I have temporary custody of the boys, pending a family court hearing. There is also a no contact order in place as well. She had no idea any of it was coming which was my intent. She called and wanted to know how much money she could expect because she just can't do it on her own, I told her maybe her new boyfriend could help. She was planning on the money for the kids from my disability check, but no kids equals no money. The kids are doing good, school counselors talked to them today and we talked to them last night and told them what was happening and what they could expect to happen in the future.

Things are finally looking good for me for once. First time in five years.:mrgreen:

Duane, so glad to hear things are going well. Sounds like the "sneak attack" was the way to go! :-D And a no contact order to boot! :twisted:

You sure are looking out for your boys and that is wonderful. They obviously have a very caring and loving dad. :-) Do you have someone staying with you to help you?

Let us know how the family court hearing goes. I just LOVE when things go right for a PALS!
