A quick review.. the kiddo's mother was adament that she rode the bus to get to my house. My son's ex girlfriend 'happened to pass by and see her and pick her up. So, she was here with someone she wasn't supposed to be to pick the kiddo up.

The other day my son was going to take the kiddo to go visit with her mother. I was meaning to ask him where she lived as in.. does she live with her mother? That same guy? You know, what are the mother's living arrangements is what I meant. It was actually idle chit chat mostly...


Perhaps I worded it wrong, perhaps he misunderstood but he answered.. "about a four minute walk from here.. (my house.)" So.. I'm thinking, with two leg braces I could walk the kiddo to this house to see her mother. What my husband pointed out later when nobody was around.. was how interesting it was that she had to take a bus to get here. And, I'm guessing there really aren't bus stops close enough unless they've changed the bus routes alot! Even still.. you'd walk further than that to ride the bus.

Something seems... very, very fishy here.

OH!! In fact, I think I remember what the conversation revolved around. Apparently by last Friday they were both to have taken the drug and alcohol tests.. They had fifteen days. My son was ready to take them but they had worked till six for several days in a row. Then he got the drug test first chance he could but the alcohol one was going to be a hundred dollars for a doctor to write a prescription plus the cost of the blood test. All of this is paid for by my son.. for the mother too. So rather than him get it as soon as possible he waited so i could try and find a place that wouldn't charge so much. And.. I did.. bingo! Forty bucks for the alcohol test.

The day I found it he went and it was a breathalyzer test so he ended up going back to the first place and paying a hundred bucks for the prescription. Friday evening he took the kiddo to the movie and I guess the mother called him while at the movie.

Saturday morning he had to work, he called me and asked me to give the kiddo money for the test and he'd pay me back. I took the kiddo to Tae Kwon Do and we were back by 10:30 am.. there was no message, no call on caller ID.. Finally at 12:10 p.m. I called both labs that we know would do the test and they were closed. I hope she doesn't expect my son to drop work and go pay for the tests on Monday.

I imagine she's waited long enough that if she does nothing she'll test clean. Guess this will prove interesting since the court might find it interesting that without a job she couldn't find time to go. If at any time she had tried to go my son would have told her I'd pay for it since he's responsible and he can pay me back so that is NOT an excuse for him to stop work nor is it a reason for her to have delayed the test.
