Spent all day in court today. I hate that place. Been there so many times. Have wasted so much of my life (and money) there.
I want to say I won, but reality is I merely didn't lose .. again. (Well, sorta.) I lost nearly a month with the Bug. Or maybe I should say, he lost a month with his dad. (Not the first time this has happened.)
There is a "system" in place, which appears to be begging to be abused/manipulated. And of course, some unscrupulous people are only too eager to oblige .. time & time & time again. And all the while, it's the little ones who suffer.
The key word that stuck out today was » "tragic". That's the word which resonated with me .. and still resonates. Because it *is* tragic. Woefully tragic.
I get the Bug tomorrow morning. I have promised him I'll "always come back" .. no matter what.
But something definitely shifted today. Serious cracks have appeared in the opposition. The spotlight has turned toward these cracks. And now we have a pattern. A history. Doncha know I wanted to say, "I tried to tell ya," .. (but I didn't).

Must say, I been having the wildest, most vivid dreams the last few nights. (Holy moly.)
Feel like I've been to hell & back .. a few times. Feel like a different person. We do what we must, right? And if that means confronting the devil himself .. so be it. No one should have to go thru this. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy.
