I can imagine they were very annoying. Better wear ear muffs.

Easier said than done.  Living here is expensive and trying to find a suitable place that accepts dogs (I have two small chiuauas) that doesn't cost and arm and a leg is very hard.
That said the damage and torment he has done is deserving of at minimum a swift kick in the gonads

Hi Nay sayer - yea, I don't mean to play down your experience. I know it's probably hard...BUT...sometimes we stay with the devil we know, instead of venturing out to deal with the devil we don't know. You know that saying? lol I hope things get better but if not, make them better.  Heart

I have an amazing fiancée , She keeps me grounded and often knocks sense into me.

Anyway I understand he isn't worth the jail time and I have some comfort in that I know both his family and literally (yes literally) everyone who I have spoken to who knows him also despises him.
