Good to hear from you Pearl. Thanks for your support and encouragement. You too Tawyna.
The latest: H left a handwritten note on the kitchen counter today while I was at work. I typed it out to send to my L and to copy paste here.

Thank you for taking care of the taxes and for all the other financial responsibilities you have continued to carry. I'm sorry I haven't been able to find a way to communicate how I can take on more of those duties.
I met with my attorney a few weeks ago and was finally presented with your filing. I explained that you wanted to work through our lawyers from this point forward. He was supposed to contact your attorney about scheduling a settlement conference in which we would make the formal offer you have asked for. I hope we can make that happen.
In the meantime, I am going to ask one more time if you and I can have our own conversation about possible plans for the house, etc. I know I have no right to ask you for anything but I keep hoping that you will forgive me enough to prevent this process from hurting both of us even more. Can you find it in your heart to do that?
Perhaps we could go together to a CPA who could give us a detailed accounting of where we stand and whether there is any way I can avoid bankruptcy. I have so much I am having to deal with right now, including finding a job. I'm not complaining but I am asking for whatever help you can give me.
At first glance, especially for those of you who aren't familiar with my sitch, he sounds calm, cool and oh so caring and seems to imply that we BOTH got into this mess together. Thanks to DB and this board I can see right through him now and this sad letter.
Later tonight after I hopefully hear from others' take on this I'll spend some time analyzing a few things. He's made some alarming statements, most notably, the bankruptcy comment.
I'd also like some suggestions as to how to answer this.
Thanks in advance.
