((((((Ali)))))) I'd do chemistry with Lisa. Maybe other science subjects too.....
I really am doing ok. The kids are doing ok. W is a bit stressed (she's never really lived on her own), but doing ok. I think W is relieved, too. We are getting along better, in some ways, without both of us waiting for the other shoe to drop. I would have never expected it, but I am starting to think that for us, this is the right thing to do.

Too funny! Ya never know if you don't ask!
I don't think I am going to give her the opportunity to reject me on that!
((((((BG)))))) You know, it's funny. The low appraisal means that it costs me less to buy W out. And that my mortgage payment will be lower. Since I really believe that it is too low, it means that in a way I am shorting her. I'm not going to go overboard to make up the difference, since the appraiser might actually be right (in this weird market). But, I will do what I can to make things work for her. And in the end, I will be doing pretty well, I think. She will be as well, so it will be ok.
We were talking tonight, she was feeling weird about the quilt thing. She doesn't understand why I would want something like that from her. I said, 24 year, 4 great kids.... Anyway, she asked what kind I wanted. Before I could answer she said she wasn't sure that a future wife (she thinks I will remarry) would want to sleep under a quilt made by an XW. I said I thought a wall hanging would be better, anyway.
Speaking of future W's, she said I should marry for furniture. We have quite a bit of house, with not a lot of furniture. And a lot of it is handed down, yard sale type stuff. So, maybe I'll have to make that one of the first questions I ask a woman, "Do you have furniture?"
W doesn't know exactly what she will take, it depends on the house she chooses. It son't matter much, other than our kitchen table and a china unit, there really isn't anything to argue over.
