Well, things do not look promising to me at all today. My attorney received a threat from opposing council that they intend to put our proceedings on trial calendar. I was mistaken, our second letter of settlement counter-offer had not gone out yet, but went out just now in response to this threat.

I take it to mean nothing that husband continues to keep a watch on me here and there. Probably just morbid curiosity.

Our settlement proposal has been reduced significantly, I requested to even lower more than the attorney suggested. There really is no lower area for us to go, in terms of an ounce of fairness. I know they will not accept anyway. Certainly, I expect to prepare for trial in the coming months.

I spent time with some extending articles on MLC on this site today. One article or thread that was very helpful was Botech's Notes, and others in that same area.

I can tell I am detached, as I let go of my hope immediately when I heard about OC's trial calendar threat. My attorney says it's talk, until my husband actually pays. That is why it is not done. Who knows. I surrender.
