After reading through on this past week, I want to add this:
With your H current frame of mind, it is not absurd that H may have brought OW to your home the day the paintings disappeared. They do stupid things like that in a MLC.
After my sitch started, my H brought his OW here and gave her a tour. It was on a Sunday, he knew I would not be home and he brought her into my home and my barns and showed it all off with pride. YUP, HE DID THIS!!!!
I found out the night she showed up here and assaulted me and told me to stay away from her boyfriend. She told me herself!!!! She told me that's how she knew where I lived and how to find me that night. She even was able to tell me stuff she would only know by having been inside. UNBELIEVABLE, Huh!!!!
You never know how these guys will think or what they will do.
YES, you need to document the cash money from the sale of stuff and how you spend it. Don't under-estimate any tactics he may pull. You protect yourself on this one. Better safe than sorry. I would make sure it was spent on stuff like groceries and clothes for son to start school, light bill, gas bill, the necessities for sure....
You know too, you can't rehearse the events for tomorrow. My advice is don't try to plan it out. Try not to be nervous, muster the strength to come across as confident and in control. I know you can do this. Once he is there maintain and avoid any/all confrontational discussions. Oh, greet him in a friendly manner and smile. Let the rest happen in "as if" manner....
I will be thinking about you.....you are a very strong lady.
