almost ultimate hurt
Mood:  down
I should have known something was coming.

Yesterday was pretty normal. My Gramz was in town to visit my uncle since he was in from Florida so she stopped by with my aunt and cousin joel (my aunt's eldest). They visited for a few minutes and then left. Didn't seem entirely wierd.

Today however shit really hit the fan.

My aunt shows up with her youngest son jeremy. Again nothing unusual. They wanted to take my almost 1 year old son DJ to the mall for a bit. I figure, ok sure. I get him ready, get his diaper bag ready, jeremy grabs his stroller while i grab his car seat out of the car. soon as my aunt has my son in her arms she tells me and my step kids to sit down she has something to say. she then goes on to say she's taking my son until 330 and will be waiting in the courthouse parking lot. when she gets back i'd have better cleaned my house or she will be going right back and contacting child services and have him taken away from me. my grandma and joel had only come over yesterday to "verify" what my aunt was telling them.

now ill be the first to admit im not the best housekeeper. its usually my kitchen that suffers since dishes are my least favorite chore. but my house wasnt that bad. i had clean clothes folded and laid out on our "game" couch and there were 2 paper bags of newpapers and a fan on the counter. i need the fan for cooking since i don't have an overhead fan for my stove. and there were the dishes from yesterday since i hadn't done them yet. some small little cleaning that my aunt decided to blow out of proportion.

i tell my aunt to give my son back and try to take him from her. she turns him away and kind of blushes me away from her and proceeds to leave. in pretty much hysterics, i call my husband and try to tell him what happened. he comes home and calls the police and they come and get the story from me and my aunt's cell number. they track her down and make her bring my son back but tell us in his view she didnt really kidnap him (all because she told me exactly where she was going) and asked if we wanted to press charges.

i should have but i didn't since im sure it wouldnt have gone anywhere. but frankly, she shows up at my house again im calling the police. as far as im concerned my family has pretty much disowned me so im not going to have anything to do with them anymore. not even my grandma who is (next to my son and husband) the most important person in my life.
