Christmas Miracle
After weeks of the kids being sent to us in too-small and inappropriate for the weather clothes, she finally broke down and sent them over to us in heavy winter jackets, boots and clothes that fit SS. SD is dressed in age-inappropriate clothes and her shirt is WAY too tight, but at least she has an appropriate jacket as well. Apparently the strategy of sending them home in the same clothes she sends us in finally worked.
Christ, that was too much effort to make the point.
At least they are warm when they are with her, now.

Who knows. If anything it was
Who knows. If anything it was her BF65 who also pays for her to drive a 55K car. If it wasn't him, then she just spun another sob story about how we're deadbeats and don't help her to some charity who doesn't know better.
When the kids are with us, they have all sorts of winter clothes and supplies and they are with us at least 20 days out of each month because she drops them off and then goes and forgets they exist for seven or eight days, then picks them up to take them to her parents to get money for the bar (under the guise of she's poor and no one helps her) and once she gets the cash, she brings them back to us and takes off again. We live in the south so it hasn't been very cool - just chilly - so their fleece and hooded jackets she gave them were workable, but I grew up in northern MI where you don't go out unless you have 12 layers which is why it's a source of worry for me.
