small setback
I really felt that me and my husband was communicating much better. I had explained to him how hurtful his letters could be. I thought he understood. We were fine. I got a letter from him last week stating he had not heard from me in weeks and I was pissing him off by not writing to him like I should. Well I understand inmates enjoy receiving mail but I really feel that I should not be blamed if I mail him cards, letters, and pictures and the prison or the post office doesn't deliver them in a timely manner. after he mailed me the letter saying I piss him off the mail, cards and letters starting pouring back in saying more postage needed. I even received pictures of my grandchild back when she was a few months. she is 2 this year so you know our mail is slow` but he blames me without getting all the facts. to me that's not fair.

I have not written anything here in a while. I began mental health therapy a while back and it has really kept me busy. I began therapy for a reason different from this issue but I found it helped more and more to talk out loud to someone who like you guys did not judge me. Well since I last wrote me and my husband were doing just great. Letters were all pleasant. we laughed and joked around. we both knew that we would not be apart much longer. I said we use to argue about MONEY because I had none to send him well I began to receive income so I was able to send 20-30 a week. unfortunately the unemployment checks were cut off so no more money to send. I\'m worried we will go back to the old disrespectful letters cause I have no money to send and that is not how it should be. Well he has complained and its been 2 weeks so should I just think positive or brace myself for what might come?
It\'s not your fault that your money got cut off tell if it was coming in you would send it. Try and think positive about it keep your letters the same as what they have been if his mean try and take no notice of it..you have told him why his just got to suck it up.
Hugs and hang in there!
Thanks you are right. Its not my fault. This has to deal with the Government. Maybe I can get an extension on unemployment after all I was only on it for a few months. I sent money faithfully every week when I had it. But you know just like my therapist said I need to stop looking for the worst in every situation and think positive. THANKS Suchaslife you are a great friend!
