oh... and here's an incentive for you, if you will...
This could be a great opportunity for her answer to surprise a lot of people watching your sitch!
I would like to surprise/help others here, but the reality is she never makes contact first. Even today, I texted her first about S17. She no longer makes contact ever, so I can't ask it now. It would have been a great thing to ask months ago. Like every other thing, it's too late.
Wow. What do I know!
Right after I posted the above, she showed up here! She brought S17 home from work. Earlier today when texting I asked if she would take her parrot when she moves because he is a mess. When they are stressed, unhappy, they pluck themselves.
Anyway,I was downstairs when she can S17 came in. I could hear her talking to the parrot. I stayed downstairs and after a few minutes went upstairs. She greeted me with "Hi Mr. ____ " That seemed purposely mean to me, since for us, calling each other Mr and Mrs ______ is a petname. I said "hi", she handed me money for this week and then I went back downstairs. She gave the parrot a bath, talked with S17 and then came downstairs to talk to me.
I am having a very tough day and she could read it right away. I am no where near that great an actor. She told me she talked with S17 and that he said he doesn't want to move - it could be more like she talked him out of it. She commented on how you can feel the stress in the house and I said "I do my best each day". She wished me well on my trip said to say hi to my friend and then said "Ok, I'll leave you be" and left.
Even though Starsky had just told me what to ask, I didn't. She likely would have just said that she came in to see how poorly the parrot is doing. Truth is she probably came in to see how poorly I am doing.
She looked incredible as always, but I tried not to notice, or at least, make it obvious. The last thing I needed was to see her today. Not sure if she was being cruel or kind. At this point, kind is cruel.
