I really do know better. Honest.

I called my sister last night. Hey, it was her birthday, I'm kinda supposed to. She was not having a happy birthday...and it was 45 minutes before I could get her off the phone and escape the "what's wrong with my life" saga.

The good news is, she's actually contacted a bank (one who's never heard of Harold's family, and so will allow her to start an account without her husband) about getting a loan to consolidate the bills that are just hers (leftover school stuff, I think), and to pay for a divorce lawyer.

The bad news is, Harold has been threatening her with all kinds of things, from outright violence if she "takes his sons away", to a lawsuit for forging his signature on checks. Which, of course she has, what wife doesn't? But she's quite worried about it. To the point where the "new" bank account is in a friend's name, "in case something happens to me before the divorce is final." **shakes head**

At least she's working on getting out. Finally.

THAT, my dear, is the healthiest, most helpful path for you both at this point.

I wish you continued strength in keeping from getting drug back into the quicksand. I know how hard it can be.
