[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 223679"] Thanks for the advice. I can't lock them in my car because it's too cold and they need to be stored at room temperature. Even if we did that, we'd have to figure out how to hide the keys; one on my key chain and one on Devon's. GFGII did stay at my house last year to take care of the pets while I was in the hospital and easy child was in GA. L, the mutual friend, locked some things in my car and took my keys with her. I didn't have all the medications then that I do now. And we didn't know at that time the extent of what he was doing. Anything that locks with a key for storage won't keep him out. He's gotten past that at his mom's too many times to count. I would need a safe with a combination lock and I really don't want to have to invest in that. Especially not knowing if he'll be here or how much. His mom and I did have that falling out and we are still not talking; however, I did send her an email a couple of months ago about medications for her lupus and she responded and it was friendly. We haven't gone any further and I don't think either one of us wants to. I know I don't. However, she did see Devon at work and made it a point to tell him that GFGII had a home pass over Thanksgiving and was trying to figure out when Devon could come over. The more I think about it, the more I'm uncomfortable having him in my home for any length of time until he regains my trust. I'm too sick to have to worry about someone elses kid getting into my stuff. Devon is aware and would keep an eye on him. I would certainly put away any medications into my room so that he wouldn't even know I have any for the short time he is here, should that happen. Like I said, he did burn some bridges with me. It's just hard because I pretty much considered him one of my own. I'm really torn about if I even want to see him or not. [/QUOTE]
