Hey Julia,

Thats an interesting email from him.. I would have "loved to have come"... !??? I'd ignore the next bit, its just a valid excuse (without saying, I couldnt because of ow).. just par for the course. I told Jody my ex does this, paints himself as busy and as though he is a single guy with no time for an R.. and she said that is very respectful of him, not to mention ow, or rub your nose in it.. so perhaps your H was doing that.

But.. really, he would have loved to have come !? Did you invite him, lol?!

Well done on your email back - perfect!!! You are really different in how you intereact with him now. Before, that would have been a much longer email.. still, its more effective to see him in person and judge things that way, and you will see him on Monday at least.

Maybe the housing market is a little better.. I have had a viewing and 3 lined up on my flat this weekend, which is more than I have had for months.
