I got some more good news tonight. Randy called me and told me he was granted the waiver and given an index number so he can FILE HIS DIVORCE! That’s the $210 fee waived and the rest of them will be too. Suh-weet! He has 4 months to file and summon all that crap but within 2 weeks it will be on the next stage. Now we can hope that Carrie doesn’t fight it. That is going to be a HUGE burden off of both of our chests. That makes me want to go celebrate, especially if I get the job tomorrow, maybe i’ll go and start saving for a Bose home theater system? We intend on getting an apartment so might as well buy stuff to put in it.

I think this topic deserves it’s own post. Randy and I also talked about Dillion a lot last night and we’ve determined at this point in time fighting for him isn’t going to get any results. Carrie has a leg up because she isn’t in prison and legally Randy really can’t do too much of ANYTHING. So, at this point we’re going to focus on getting ourselves established and once he gets out we are going to live here for a few months to build up financially. He has 3 months to get a job once he gets out (parole standards) and I’d like to have a cushion in savings first so we don’t stress. Then we’re going to look into finding a place to live but I’d rather look into mortgage lenders for financing rather than renting because… there are so many more perks and it’s more satisfying to own your own home as opposed to renting and dealing with landlords. You can get some pretty crappy ones out there.

Once that is set in stone we’re going to push for visitation at first and see how things go. If we see anything that is harmful to Dillion by living with Carrie then we’re going to take action to try to gain full custody. Right now he’s focusing on the divorce because he realizes how much it bothers me. He should be at the law library from 1-4 today since they have notaries and legal assistance for inmates there. I’m crossing my fingers that he can get the ball rolling on this.
