My original plan was to leave this weekend. I delayed it because the judge didn't sign all the papers, but set a hearing for July 13.

I don't yet have temporary custody and he hasn't been made to vacate.

I want to wait until closer to the hearing. So, next week we'll serve papers. My attorney agrees with my plan.

I so want control of the process, but I must trust in it and my strength and my plans.

More details in my journal for anyone who want to see. Wish me luck!!!!!

" Sorry about that prachelle, hopefully, the situation will be tolerable for another week. Sometimes there's going to be a few kinks in the plans...especially when leaving an abuser. As far as him being nice, it's part of the cycle...sounds like a honeymoon phase. Don't buy into it, his true self is there waiting to spring up again.
Good luck with everything! "

" I hope that you have a wonderful and peaceful 4th of July. You are a wonderful strong woman with a strong heart and mind. I understand that you feel you need to be in control....we have had so little control in our lives for so long.

Isn't it wonderful?

Have a great Holiday!! "

" Hey Prachelle,I'm sorry you have to do this for another week but trust in yourself because you can do this. The prize at the end of the road is in reaching distance,just keep reaching for it. Keep your chin up x "
