Hi Hope,

I think you did great too. There's a time and place for everything and eventually the LBS needs to state the facts - which you did very well. Just make sure you don't sound like a "mom" but a strong, sexy, confident woman. I'm working on this too for our first mediation appointment - which will be the first time I've seen my H since August.

So he hasn't received your response yet? Interesting. I responded in September and H didn't see it until January! I'm secretly ok with that since I'm trying to delay too, but you can be sure at some point I will ask H's L "I'd like to know why you did not give H my response in September" As business-like as possible of course.

Stay strong.
