Long weekend of Chaos. Friday morning my lawyer sends a message asking if I sent my wife a txt about the kids. I said yep. He goes good. We are trying to get them to you this weekend.

I am ecstatic. This was at 11am. 1pm rolls around and he calls me. Tells me that her attorney agrees I should see the kids, but there are conditions. I roll my eyes as he tells me this. She is allowed to call every 2 hours to check up on them. I tell my attorney. That is fine, but on Sunday I will be in church with the kids. That she can not call at that time. I gave him the time frame. I just want to see my kids! SO I dont care if she is calling, just no interruption of Church is all I ask. He asked what time to pick up and drop off. I said 6pm Friday through 6pm Sunday.

He was fine with that. Said he will relay that to her attorney. I wait...wait and wait. No response. I call my attorney at 4:30. He said that OPC is not answering emails or returning calls. Here it is now 4:30pm and I want to get them in an 90 min. 5:30 rolls around and he calls. Says that they are still not responding and then tells me to just text my wife and see if we can arrange. So I do.

I send the msg to her. I say "Hey, my attorney can not get ahold of yours in regards to times and the phone calls." I still want to pick them up this evening and return on Sunday evening. My only concern is the calls on Sunday. We will be going to church from 1045 until 12:30. So is 1pm cool with you?

No response for 3 more hours. Then I got hit with a long text about...I am only going to church because I am trying to impress someone else and maybe Mass will help my soul. I respond back again with hey, just want to know about the 1pm phone call and no calls from 10:45 to 1230. If that is fine then we can arrange to exchange. She replied back again 2 hours later. Tells me that is fine. 5pm Sat through 5pm Sunday. Now I am just rolling eyes.

I agree. I want to see the kids. It has been 39 days since I saw them. 5pm rolls around I am sitting at the exchange location until 5:45. She sends a message saying she is almost there they are running late. I get them at 6pm

There is more drama, but I will spare the three page essay.

The short of it. Daughter drama, son was great and we enjoyed each others company and time spent together...at church and at home. Drama at pickup.....Lord help me I am being nice. Returning some items she left, mail she got and some of her meds.

I am upset they are gone. I wanted to spend more time with them. I am happy I was able to spend what little time I had with them. Just drama and ignorance on her end made it a rough weekend.


I want to ask for prayers for my Wife, my daughter and my son. Mostly the females, but include my son please. He is clearly a little more level headed than the wife and daughter. I may need a little bump here too. I am a little down over having to take them back. Been an emotional weekend.
