As long as nothing unexpected happens (we all know how that goes when dealing with the DOC) the Parole Board will put their signature on Wayne's paperwork this week. That means by Friday, their final decision will have been handed down and he will have a projected release date and he will be home once the interstate compact paperwork goes through. I am so happy - finally some motion on behalf of the Board. They've been stuck in neutral for almost 2 months now.
I told Wayne Saturday when he called and he was so "oh well" about it all. He said he doesn't want to get his hopes up yet again to just have them let down and then goes into the "poor pitiful me" spill. If I could have gotten through the phone, I think I would have choked him!
I get so angry at him sometimes and maybe I shouldn't, but I do. I am sitting there thinking for 6 months I've been running around like a mad woman trying to get him relseased, getting letters written, hiring a lawyer, sending him money, all the while holding a full-time job, and assuming all of the responsibilities that we once shared. I hate the fact that he's locked up with everything in me, but does he not realize that it's affected me too? I'm not feeling sorry for myself, but I am angry at the whole situation. It was because of him that "they" came into OUR home at eleven o'clock at night, took him to jail, and totally uprooted MY whole life. It's not like this is his first rodeo - he's spent 14 of the last 30 years in prison - a year here and a few years there. He's done this before - I haven't. But just like the good wife, I kept it all in and didn't say a word. I just had to vent, it was eating me alive...thanks for listening.
Anyway, keep your fingers crossed and I'll let you know what I find out on Friday.
