Signs

Do believe in signs? Or messages from someplace else? I believe in guardian angels and sometimes I think that mine might just think that I have a very thick head...over and over I get beat up in court... over and over I have problems

This morning.. going to court for my 15 minute hearing to MAKE SURE that I got the boys.. I had a message sent to me.

Judge Ditsworth of the Superior Court in Maricopa County Arizona (just in case anyone wants to search his name..they will find me) showed up about 20 minutes late. I felt pretty good about what was going to happen.. I thought that there would be some sort of reprimand to my ex wife for not giving me the kids.. and maybe even something else for not giving to me for Father's Day... maybe he would strike some fear into her.

What happened? Well, he asked me if I got the boys.. I said "yes" he looked over at her and asked if there was anything else.. as if it was planned.. she said "Well, the boys need school uniforms and I think that I am entitled to have a weekend to take them out to get them their uniforms" the judge looked at me.. and asked.. "do you think that is reasonable?" I explained again.. that I didn't see my boys for most of the summer.. that I didn't get them for Father's day.. that if I give them to her for a weekend.. there will be no guarentee that I would get them back.. unless you set another court date... because that is the only reason that I got them this summer..

The judge thought I was being UNREASONABLE! He said that I would have to buy the school uniforms if I didn't allow her to have the kids... for a weekend...

I looked at him and asked again.. WHAT ABOUT FATHER'S DAY.. WHAT ABOUT HER NOT GIVING ME THE BOYS.. NOW YOU WANT TO TAKE THEM AWAY FROM ME.. PUNISH ME.. WHEN SHE IS THE ONE THAT IS WRONG!!!!

he said... "I don't have anymore time Mr. Bates... and I won't listen to anymore.. You too need to work this out"

I am working it out.. I can't take this anymore.. I am leaving town.. and maybe I will see my boys someday... maybe... I sort of think that this asshole judge... won't care about a Father wanting to see his children..

It's a sign that I made the right decision.. I won't live with this anymoe.

I will be happy to see the boys for the next 5 weeks.. and then.. kiss them and tell them that thier Dad does love them.. and they know it.. and never to forget it... but I won't fight thier mother anymore.
