My W brought my S over last night. It was probably one of the most interesting interactions we've had in a awhile. She was probably at my house for 20-30 minutes. She came alone - it she hadn't, it would have drastically shortened the time she was there. It was kind of interesting, too, that she never set foot inside the house. I didn't invite her in, either.
We did discuss a few minor topics during that time. She mentioned my S had indicated he was feeling like he wasn't getting enough time with her. We talked about some potential remedies. I had to ask her the status of her getting her tax information to H&R Block. She said she had finally received a missing W2 in the mail and she'd take care of it this week. I needed to switch weekends with her for my S so we talked through that. We also talked about setting up my S in some summer camps.
We had some other small talk as well. I think some of it revolved around what I have going on in my life right now, particularly through my church. I still wonder if she still doesn't know what to think about the changes in my social life. I wonder if she's still unsure of what to believe.
At one point during our conversation she indirectly paid me a compliment on how I was dressed. (What she didn't know is I had gone out for a 3 mile run prior to her getting there and had showered and put the clothes back on I had worn to church) IN particular, she complimented the jeans I was wearing.
The biggest downer was at one point in our conversation was that she dropped the L bomb. She said that for some reason the L was wanting to meet with her this week. I ignored the comment and just continued the conversation. I think I've noticed a pattern here - she drops the L bomb any time either we're having a decent conversation or we're exchanging money. It may just be coincidence. Or it may be because money is being exchanged and it reminds her. Or it may be something to reset herself back on her game plan. Who knows?
