"Look at me, I'm a great Dad"

When he wanted me, he wanted me to leave my kids, my grandsons, my home. He told me to let them fend for themselves and if they ended up homeless tough $#!+. 
I knew if I left he would control when I saw them, how much time I spent with them. I knew this and I couldn't do it. I knew if they needed me, needed help he would prevent it. 
I didn't bend. So he left. Within days he had his new "supply" and amazingly he calls the kids daily. He takes them out to eat. He asks to spend time with them. 
No, I didn't need to get out of the way for him to want his kids. He's impressing her with his, "look at what a great Dad I am". 
Sadly it will wear off and my kids will be crushed. Eventually he will stop making the effort cause it exhausts him and he already has her "locked in". She's the perfect candidate for his next victim. He told our youngest they have so much in common and she once dated a guy that stalked her. 
Oh honey... you have no idea what you've got yourself into this time!

Nature takes care of things

Sometimes, nature says, "hold on a little longer, I got this!"  Nothing I could have done would have been any worse than the Karma that falls on him now. NOTHING. The old me would have been crushed, fearful, emerged in him. She also would have been depressed, misused, and taken for granted.  The new me?... well, she refuses to look at this as if it's anything to do with what he did TO ME. He brought this upon himself. HE DID THIS!  Our youngest made the statement that "It's his karma for what he did". I knew I was healed when I reminded her that this is the result of a lifestyle led by alcohol and drugs not the abuse and not the abandonment. I will not take the blame for this one!  He has cancer. 25% in his bone marrow. 75% blood. Lymphnodes tested positive. He started chemo last week and it's doing what chemo does.  A part of me wants to feel sorry for him. But the part of me that he destroyed is fighting that sympathy. I pray about it. Pray...

Wake your ass up...

Years later and I'm still triggered by the abuse. Last night I had to take my youngest (20) to the ER and while she apologized profusely for his late it was (work night(, I couldn't help but remember when my kids were little and I was the only one in the ER with them.   As you can imagine, with 5 kids, that's a lot of ER visits over time.   This morning I'm forced to get up for work on 3 hrs of sleep. Only this time, I don't have an angry, heartless asshole standing over me telling me to,  "Get the fuck up".  (BTW... my daughter is ok).  This memory just makes me resent myself for staying. I allowed him to bully me and dictate everyday as if I owed him. As if he owned me.  It didn't matter if it was a near all night visit to the ER, a fussy newborn or me being sick. Didn't matter.  But let him be hungover AF. Let him be sick.  Me....Jumping up to keep the kids quiet, making sure the TV isn't too loud, not letting any door in ...

Master of Manipulation

I don't ask. I don't have to ask. The kids talk and I hear everything. Most times IDGAF. But sometimes it's like I'm listening to my life being played over and over again.  He's been with his "new supply" for only 5 months and they've already broken up 3 times. That's 3 times back together. That's 3 obvious times he's manipulated her to come back.  I knew when I heard it was someone he worked with that it was the perfect set up. Someone he could keep his insecure eyes on.  Then he stopped working there. But he has internal eyes on her. Someone is reporting back to him and I know it's not our son who still works there. He doesn't GAF either.  But people are talking and he hears all of it.  I find it funny that they are saying she said there's just too much drama with him. But...but... he said I was the drama! LMAO  Soooooo..... Where you goin ho? You stay right the fuck where you are! YOU are the reason he did what he...
