So apparently FIL was able to get SS11's cell phone a new battery, replace the SIM card and gave DH and I his new number on Sunday morning.  DH calls SS, gets no answer and then gets blocked.  DH calls FIL to make sure it's the right number and apparently while he was calling SS, FIL was on the landline talking to SS and heard GBM yell at SS for giving DH his new number.  He says SS got nervous and hung up the phone with him.  This woman is worse than BM, seriously.  So SS sends DH a message via instagram and they talk for a bit and DH mentions picking him up and taking him to buy new school shoes next time we go visit.  

BM calls DH a couple of hours later and asks about him buying the shoes.  DH says that he would and manages to agree to get the uniforms as well.  I am beyond pissed at this because we are super broke with the legal fees right now and he's pretty much just doubled CS for next month with the extras he has agreed to buy, but in all honesty BM is a total gold digger and we figure this will probably get us access to SS, at least for a while.  I hate playing this money game with her, but I am also at a loss as to what we can do to get SS out of from this situation.   

Anyway, within 20 minutes, SS (although I think it was GBM who blocked him originally) has unblocked DH and texts him asking him to call.  We both speak to him, and he apologizes TO ME for behaving badly last time we went (when he refused to see us).  I can HEAR BM coaching him in the background.  This woman is a complete loon, but she also knows I make more than DH and has been trying to get on my good side for a while.  YEAH, RIGHT.  SS even asks if he can come out to visit us before school starts back up again. 

It is unbelievable what BM and GBM will do -and put SS through- for money.  

On a side note, SS mentioned to FIL that BM wanted a new car but couldn't get one because DH hasn't paid her the money he "owes" her, so I guess that's how she calculated that ridiculous amount of back pay. 

Will this woman ever stop surprising me?
