@Desertdi   Now I have to go through all the trouble of going to court for an Order of Protection against my daughter's ex husband.  Threatening my life and spitting in my face, if it isn't one thing it's another and it's always because of someone else messing with your life.

Dear @Lindsays Grandma     I am so sorry you are going through that.   Actually, it sends chills down my spine.    Many years ago, I had a stalker, so I really know how you feel.    I was terrified of my own shadow.

 

Sending you hugs and prayers.    di

@Porcelain    Yes, you got #2 right. You are the only one who even attempted to answer a question.  Do you want to know the answers to the others?
