I'm starting the journey home!

Atlas:

I am sorry about what I am going to write here, but being an observer from the outside, I don't want to see you get blindsided.

Not trying to bring you down (and I am sorry that my cynical self is showing), but could she be trying to butter you up to get what she wants. It appears at this point (and correct me if I am wrong) that she does not have the financial means to make things on her own. And she always seems to be extra caring when she is at a real low financially. I would just caution to be careful not to go too far with this. I would try and pay very close attention to her attitude over the next week or so and see what occurs. Just thinking out loud and if I were in your shoes, this is what I would be concerned about. I always hope for the best, but get ready and be prepared for the worst.

That being said, you are lightyears ahead of me and most others on this board. Congrats and keep up the good DB'ing.

And again I apologize. The last thing I would want if I were in your shoes is someone coming in to ruin my mood, and I hope I don't do that, just my cynical untrained eye coming through.

And I don't know what you meant by the pullback. The purchase of the car? Am I correct in assuming that you are footing the bill for it?
