Really nervous-I have a lot riding on today’s verdict

God, I’m so nervous.  I don’t know if I can get any work done.  All I want to do is stuff my face with food.  But I have my water handy so I’m downing that like crazy.  Already got in 72 oz of water.  Ahhhh, thank God there’s no junk food around but good snacks and food.

My boyfriend is a good father.  Has two children, one in Texas and one his mother adopted and lives in Bellflower.  He’s been paying child support, as much as he can every month.  But the court system is screwed up.  They always want more.  They continue to suspend his license over and over and over again.  He clears it up with one court another one gets him.

So today he’s in court for the teenager, I’m hoping things goes well.  However, he has 2, 2 warrants for tickets stemming from the license suspension.  Those tickets are only $700 each but because he’s not working and didn’t pay they turned into warrants at $32,000.00 each.  On Friday, when we tried to pay one ticket, we’re told they won’t accept the money and that he has to go in front of the judge - and it’s up to him whether or not he is taken into custody or if they will accept the money order in full.  He’s looking at doing 1 year per warrant!!!  What gets me is it was a ticket for driving on a suspending license - not like he committed a ”crime”!!! 

So my honey is in LA, I’m a nervous wreck.  Who knew my feet and palms can be so sweaty?  

If he is taken in to custody, there goes his art school - something that our future depends on.  His school costs $100,000 for 3 years, each class is $1500…if he goes to jail we owe a ton of money and our future is basically gone. 

 I dont’ want to cry, I’m keeping my hopes up.  This is going to be a long day.  Pray for me guys.  I’m a wreck right now.

    Thank you for the love ladies!!!

    It’s 1:30 pm and I only know one thing, the first court did a “Reconciliation” for him and his 13 year old son, lowered his payment and released his license. I hope this ends future suspensions.

    Still have not heard from him and I know he’s there taking care of the warrant for one ticket in another LA court. I’m like sitting on pins and needles waiting to find out what happened there.

    Thinking of you…hope all goes well.
    My husband has child support issues…BUT its not him…He has proved it over and over to child support…they even figured who it should be…but it keeps going to suspend his license over and over because of it. We feel like weve gotten no help from anybody…very frustrating. He can be arrested if he gets pulled over…crazy.
    Sorry, Im sending hugs to you…hang in there.

    Thank you my two Debbies! :)

    Yes Debbie, isn’t it rediculus how the system works.

    Well, he missed seeing the judge for the warrant because he was at a different court for CP. They have him back on for next Monday. So here’s to another week of anxiety.

    Well, I have to get off and get going with ending my workday. I have to get to the gym and get my kickboxing and yoga in for the day - it’s my stress reliever!

    Sorry, haven’t been such a great buddy today!
