I give her a lot of credit (or she's pretty ballsy) for calling you to ask about her problem. Has she swallowed enough of her pride that she will ask for your help now? or is she just trying to save a buck?
No, her real father could not figure it out so she calls daddy #2. I slept on it and I don't feel guilty about not calling back. I was at the bookstore having fun (found an interesting Italian cookbook) and when I got home I just wanted to unwind - not solve her electrical problems.
She is like so many of the other walk-aways here. They seem to NEED to be "friends" so they don't have to face facts that their choices hurt another person - a person they once loved, or at least said they did. I was less than a perfect husband but no way did I "earn" the last two years. If we become "friends" she will even believe that this was a "joint" decision.
She hurt me and she quit rather than work on the M or work on her or help me through some of my problems. I have to stop being in denial about that and stop justifying her actions. She is not the sweet girl I married.

My "town" home is mostly floorless, needs paint, needs new kitchen cabinets, mold remediation in the kitchen, etc.
Glenda, did you move into my house? That work, and more lies ahead for me. She let the place go, and I did too before I moved out. I thought about buying new but that would have hurt money wise. Besides, Norm on the New Yankee Workshop (public TV) is building a kitchen this year.
Plus the work will fill my time and keep me from running away to Alaska or such.
