Waiting on the Custody Evaluation

I've been making the daily trek to the post office for weeks as I await the details of the custody evaluation. At our last hearing in October, we were each instructed to submit a list of items that we want the evaluator to address. The items were due to the court by November 1st. Mine obviously had to do with everything that I blog about weekly-- Seth and the havoc that he wreaks on our daughters. His had to do with my blog and very few items that related to the children's well being. In Seth's request to the court, he showed his true colors and where his concerns really are.The Commissioner was going to review our paperwork and make an order for the evaluation-- outlining which of our concerns that he wanted the evaluator to focus on. Our paperwork was due on November 1st so I expected the orders back from the Commissioner shortly thereafter.  It still hasn't come through which leaves me wondering what is going on-- and why things are so delayed.  Our hearing to review the findings is set for February 5, 2013. At this point, and with the holidays on the horizon, I do not see how the evaluation will be done in time.  I also wonder if the Commissioner is purposefully delaying things and will address the reasons why at the February 5th court date.I've come to accept that no news is good news and that we will have a peaceful holiday season."Like" One Mom's Battle on Facebook or "follow" on Twitter Click the link to purchase Tina's new book, "Divorcing a Narcissist- One Mom's Battle."  You will find insight, red flag reflections and strategies on how to survive (and thrive!) while divorcing of co-parenting with a narcissist.
