Chuck sent a death threat. I was terrified. I called Michael. We both drove to the police station and reported it. Then we went to the domestic violence shelter to get help with a protective order. Thank goodness they granted a temporary protective order. The hearing is in two weeks. We need to show the judge all the harassing messages. Hopefully I can get a protective order, but I’m not sure how that will help me because I’m still required to message Chuck about the kids. The protective order wouldn’t change the parent time. So I’ll keep using these strategic messages because it’s my only hope of ever living free. I am starting to feel so much more confident.

I’m not going to write back as the domestic violence shelter counseled me not to, but if I did, I would write this. At the very least, I thought it was funny and it cheered me up a tiny bit:

Hey Chuck, that is so true. 

Since I’m not an expert in finding dead bodies, I took this message to the police. They started a file just in case. I told them it wasn’t so bad because if I’m dead I’ll be safe in heaven, not in a ditch, haha. They didn’t think that was very funny. But at least they’re aware of your thoughts about murdering me.

Thanks for keeping me in the loop.
