This trip has been a blast, for the most part. I love my sisters, I love being in the South, I love my Aunts and my friends and I've been so happy seeing them and being able to visit with them.

Today was court, though. Mom got 57% plus alimony. She also got a chunk of the money from the college and mission fund that the kids had earned (Dad's side company that we'd all worked for). I spent a lot of today trying to think of how to make her realize how far past the line she'd gone. Only now am I starting to feel that crushed feeling that always happens when that woman's life brushes mine.
