CVA - Moving On

[Not Much Left]

So much for letting things simmer till Christmas.
W sent me an email asking if we could get together to discuss Xmas gifts / plans / agreement for attorneys.

Called her and asked if we could talk about right now and of course it was while she was picking up the kids.

So I just asked what her plans are for xmas (Dallas) she says "well, I want to go see my family......silence.....", OK, when I ask, I dont know, the 27th? OK. Guarantee the kids will not want to go but I will be supportive.

Then I tell her I have found 2 houses, which I have to make a decision on. I think she wants to have everything spelled out in an agreement which will hose me regarding timing of the house. By the time we work through everything, it will be too late and the house(s) will be gone. I really think she wants the pre-D agreement to protect herself (from whatever I dont know) and doesnt understand that we can do whatever we want till it is final.

I will talk to her about it tonight. This woman is still SO cold but polite it is amazing. She literally talks to me with ZERO emotion in her voice. DONE, FINAL. One day, I will get there I guess. Shattered dreams and all that BS.

It's time to shake it up. I am going to tell her about what I want tonight in terms of expenses, calmly, rationally but like it is. No more full time maid, no more pool service, limiting dinners out the works.

*SHE* needs to come up with her own budget and do some work to show me what she wants. She's too busy spending all day shopping for xmas gifts and doing things for the teachers at our school. Too busy to think about the ramifications of what is going to happen. Glad she is doing that but as usual, I have to pick up the slack on everything else that needs to get done. Yes, I still am angry about all that....maybe never be any different. I dont know.
