It's the day after TG and we made it. My children and I made it and it was nice.

Unfortunately, I was sad he didn't even attempt to call the children but I realized they didn't call him either.

Even though he abandoned us and offers no assistance, we had a bountiful Thanksgiving feast with enough to share with others.

My job today is to make sure I don't over-stress about the PL hearing next week. So far he has violated the court order to provide financial documents by a certain time.

I am still nervous he will try to hurt me - my 19 year old is also worried - because although he filed, he does not want to pay anything - child support, alimony nothing - and has threatened our case better not go before a judge.

For now, I continue to move forward while keeping a keen eye on my surroundings at all times as advised by my attorney.
