This was a case where she truly would have thought I was an idiot for spending the money or staying at the apartment. I have seen her reactions to people who don't accept her help and she doesn't think to highly of it when she is offering a solution.
I'm not sure what you mean by "without giving me what I wanted". At best I am at the point of getting on friendlier terms with her which is further along than where it used to be. And she does think I am getting a life. I guess that equates to me not being so dependent on her so that she can feel more at ease if we are able to work things out down the road.
She did actually call me to come look at D7 last night playing with the dog. We both watched her. D7 did much better last night. I think between having us both there and having the dog there she felt better about things. Perhaps a bonding moment for me and W? Don't know.
