Not my problem.

My ex finally saw his son tonight. I took us all out to dinner so there was no "hanging at my house". Dinner was good, a little expensive but my son had a nice time. After dinner, my Ex's alcoholic drunk BIL picked him up and took him back to the bar that he came from. The whole time, BIL was whispering in one of my ears that "they only bought a 40" and then D stole his truck and blah blah blah... While D was telling me in the other ear "not true not true not true. He's a drunk and I'm clean."

Supposedly they are going back to Montana on Wednesday (when the SSI check gets here). PLEASE GOD let them REALLY go back on Wednesday.

My son was happy to see his dad. That's all that really matters. That and the fact that HE'S NOT MY PROBLEM anymore.

Still. It's much nicer when NOT MY PROBLEM is 3 states away.

Hugs and prayers!

Amen, sister.

I'm glad your son enjoyed his visit, and good for you for not buying into their "problem".

You shine girl.

Hugs

Glad your son enjoyed his visit and given the fact that you had two people telling you different stories - glad he's going back soon. It's a reminder as to why it's good he's not close!

Isn't it amazing how things change? How WE do?

What used to feel bad.. was sad, becomes a blessing!

I do hope he leaves!! But if he doesn't. Or feels the NEED to see his son, to say goodbye. And you can't get out of it..
I vote- mcdonalds the next time!!

Kitty- we just have to laugh..
You are solely taking care of not just your son.. yep his son, too.
And he has you- taking him and his brother, out to dinner?

Oh you just have to shake your head, and laugh.. How things change.
We change. What becomes a good thing. A blessing.
I do hope he does go away!!
