WAW and me in 11th hour!!!!

Here's my first attempt at a response. I am not thrilled with it but that is why I am posting it here. Any feed back?

Hi W,

When we started the divorce mediation process with DM back in January we did not include the household furniture in with our assets because we had agreed that we would divide up the furniture between the two of us when we each had a place that could fit some of the pieces. Just because you have decided to move back to Illinois, I don’t feel that I should now be forced to come up with additional funds to compensate you so I intend to honor that original agreement.

Of the items that you currently have, only the TV (which was a gift to me from my bosses) and the tools and tool box should be returned to me or you should compensate me for them. All the rest of the items you have can be moved with you, put in storage, sold, given away or thrown away as you see fit. Currently the family room at my house is filled with our daughter’s things from them both having moved back from college so I don’t have a lot of room. You are more than free to bring any of the things that you don't want to store to my house and put them in the garage and then they become my property with no compensation given to you.

If there are any furnishings in my house that you would like you can let me know and once I agree to let you have them you can take them with you or store them or sell them as you see fit. I feel that I have provided you with plenty of money to start your new life and that I have the responsibility of taking care of me and our three children while you only need to take care of yourself so I need all the money I have to provide a comfortable and safe home for us.

Things of a personal nature at my house (i.e. photo albums, memorabilia etc.) are free for you to take. I only ask that you provide me with a list of what was taken. The only other thing that I request is that OM not come into my house.

Ken
