What's Going On........

[DianaB]

Damon demanded at first that he was going to have Karlie for the weekend but ended up letting her chose who she wanted to be with because he knows we have a big Easter picnic. She ended up choosing Damon because she was missing him and she knows that something is going on.

Damon's sister came and got him then they came and got Karlie. Damon wanted to see Dean and spent less than 5 minutes with him. Karlie did have a good time with Damon and his sister and her family. I'm glad. We were worried for Karlie. He ended up keeping her last night because the kids didn't have school today and he brought her back this morning before he went to work. He bought her some gifts......nothing for Dean........and didn't even ask to see him either.

Dae Lynn's taken papers into the lawyer's office and is ready to file. She talked to the lawyer a little bit and will talk to him again before they serve Damon. She was going to wait but doesn't want Damon to get the jump on her and get custody of Dean while all of this is going on.

I can't believe he doesn't want to see Dean!

I am praying that this works out for the best for everyone Diana.

Thanks, Judy.

Glen went into town to talk to the sheriff......just in case there is any problem then he is aware of the situation. Glen's a little concerned because Damon was watching YouTube videos of hand to hand combat and how to disarm a person plus he has his military training. He warned Dae Lynn and I to be careful. He probably won't cause trouble but it doesn't hurt to be prepared. The only way he'll be trouble in my opinion is if he starts drinking.

Diana, do you keep a gun in the house that you know how to use? I think that he will certainly start drinking again. He'll blame Dae Lynn, you and Glen too. Regardless, better safe than sorry.

He will get arrested again soon enough, and end up in jail again. At least he'll be out of the way for a while!

[DianaB]

Yes, we have some and they are ready in case of an emergency. I would hope that they would never be used though.

We just had Damon's parole officer here. She is suppose to check out the residences of the parolees and she wasn't happy that Damon wasn't actually living here but in a tent and that he hadn't contacted her about it. He's going to be in trouble for that. We spent some time with her going over what he's allowed and not allowed to do. She cautioned us to contact the sheriff if we have any problems because then it will go across her desk and she'll be aware of any problems. She was very nice.

[judy]

Good to know that she is available! Does Damon check in with her?

How is Karlie doing?

[DianaB]

Karlie is doing fine. Last week after Damon left she would listen to a book that he did for her with his voice reading it......over and over. She was also cried easily. One afternoon she sat on the swing and cried......Dean came in and told me "Sissy hurt" but when I went out she was just crying for her Daddy.

This weekend she's staying with Dae Lynn. Damon's going to his sisters but he's leaving Karlie with us.

Dae Lynn went and talked to him last night and told him that she was filing. She's mostly doing it so that Damon can't get Dean during the divorce. He's lost a lot of weight and I guess he looks bad. She came home feeling pretty bad and upset. She's really questioning what she's doing. Yesterday was really hard on her. I can understand why.....it sounds so trivial that we caught him lying about such piddly things.......but that's not the problem.....it's the lies. Sigh.....this is all hard!! I feel for her and I feel for Damon.......and the kids.

Damon's parole officer called and talked to him and he has a week to find a house to live in. She understood what was going on and I'm glad that she gave him some time.
