I told him this afternoon that driving him to and from work at odd hours, having to wake chloe up way earlier than is fair, is getting to me. I also told him that he needs to find out NOW when his first class is. He needs to at least be able to tell the judge when he is starting classes, if not have proof that he is taking them. he will have the interlock device put on his car within the week come hell or high water! Im just tired of it all. I did nothing wrong, and yet I am being punished also.
So yeah. its gonna end very soon
Wow. I feel your pain, sistah. Drove mine around for a SHORT while during treatment, etc, then showed him his thumb and hid my keys. It did not go well, but it was not a deal breaker in the end.
One of the reasons we moved away from Kitsap were the never-ending "emphasis patrols". Living in Indianola with the narrow tree covered lanes, I ALWAYS hugged the inside (fog-line). I grew up in the Southeast, and the Troopers taught us that was the safe thing to do on narrow lanes so I never heard of that being a 'cause for detainment' until I got stationed in Washington. Almost got clipped by patrol cars on MANY occasion as I headed home from work to Indianola just using my own lane while they rode the center. I had one kid in my unit who "crossed the lane too quickly" on I-5 in Bremerton and had to go thru so many hoops (no DUI!) just to keep DCS off of him, it was ludicrous!
ANYWAY! Do not mis-understand: I get how hard a policeman's job is, I wouldn't want their job for ANYthing, and I don't condone out of control driving, but I just don't get why Kitsap is so bent on some issues while drug manufacturing is rampant and there are so many more things that county could improve on...
SO! Back to your current situation (sorry for the digression!): I used to get trapped behind that little bus that picked up bicyclists, pedestrians, etc. as I was leaving Indianola every morning. Is it still running? Not an option for your DH? Or at least as far as the main drag where he could get a ride with someone else...?
Good Luck... It's a hard road, so just think of us as your shock absorbers...
See the problem with alot of the Kitsap county sheriffs is that they are small town rejects, that got picked on in school, who became cops, and now have a power trip! I really hate to say it, but it is true. They start off at town level, and work their way on up through the ranks. Ive seen it happen SO many times. And come on! When you have 86 cops in ONE small town, there just is nothing for them to do, so they LOOK for everything and anything. bainbridge a few years ago had 86, Kingston has a county sheriffs office they are lazy, and wont help if the action is litterally pounding on their front door. Poulsbo, they are bored, and like to make people uncomfortable. But out of all the towns here in Kitsap. Bremerton is the worst. But that is because of the ship yards, welfare housing, and gang activities. Bremerton doesnt mess around, they cant afford too.
Dont get me wrong, I know they have a tough job, but I would wager a bet, that close to half of them have a major stick up the rear, and a power trip.
As for my husband. He's acting like a little boy who needs his mommy to do it all for him. I did not marry a child, and the way I see it is, if he, or I, or any adult for that matter, does something wrong. They darn well better deal with it, and do what needs to be done, and NOT expect others to do it all for them! I love him, I love him, I love him, I do! BUT!!! he's 36 and its time to man up! He has until I get paid, to be shaufered around, after that, he's on his own. I bought him a beater car when I sold my truck, so he has transportation. I will still go to court with him, but I will no longer drive him to and from work, or to his treatment classes.
Poor little Chloe this morning, was screaming mad that I had to wake her up. So I made him deal with her, and appologise to her for having to get her up so early. I think he is starting to figure out that I am not joking when I say I am fed up!
Ok long rant over. lol I'll step down of my pedestal now!
