La Bug-Clouds in my Coffee

[Accuray]

I may need a blank check for the fee, but I will pay it. Can you write a check from your acct?

Are you concerned he won't pay it? Otherwise give him the benefit of the doubt. You can have the conversation after he disappoints you versus implying that you know he will.

[i]As for the house, If I have the truck and the trailer,...I do want my tools,(he has a lot of $$tools but he does not make a living with these)... I imagine that would be close to a wash. [I had given him a list of things that would allow him to meet his house obligation, one of them was relinquish his claim to the house]Unless of course the housing market has made a great rebound that I don't know about. I realize that I owe something for what you've paid and I haven't on the house this past year. Hopefully the tax refund will take care of some of that. Help me understand this. I'm not clear on what you mean about the house.
I'm not prepared to talk about any thing other than the house at this time.

You lost me here. Versus saying "I'm not prepared" (controlling), say "Let's discuss"

You have some personal stuff in the garage. If you let me know when you'll pick it up, I can have it on the garage apron.

Please change your address and phone number with everyone you regularly receive mail/calls from.

Change to: "I am currently receiving your mail and phone calls, please think about how we should handle that. Also, how would you like to handle your personal stuff in the garage?"
