Thanks KarenMarie and Kimmie Lee for your encouragement!

Received the check from H today. Of course I analyzed everything about it.

First thing - he used my MAIDEN name on the envelope - nice touch H. Second he used a pen that was almost out of ink and I can barely read his signature.

Now get this - he used a Seabiscuit postage stamp. I loved that book and H knows it. He gave me the DVD for Xmas one year and he also gave me a riding hat and boots when I started lessons about 6 years ago. This stamp was not a coincidence.

He also made a Dec. - March notation at the bottom - implying as he said in his email that this would be my alimony through March. Alimony? We're not D yet dear H - it's your half of the mortgage and other joint bills.

My L is having a conference call with H's L tomorrow. We should then have more details about what's going on with this retirement fund funny business.
