Thanks LA. I did look at some MLC stuff and will continue to go through it. I've also looked at other stuff online. I honestly don't think he's too old, or maybe this is his 2nd MLC. My IC thinks he's too old.
Before I went to bed, I continued to remain calm and asked him a few questions about other topics. I held it together until I went to bed and had to listen to him breathe.
He knows he partitally to blame. I sent him the bill by email 2 times, and he never looked at it. I've also felt that he knocks me down a few pegs. He has a HS diploma and that is all. I've never thrown that at him, and I honestly don't care. He makes a good living without a college degree.
This spat didn't bother me as much as they have in the past. I know what he was saying was out of line. It also made me think about how unfair he is when he fights by digressing from the issue into personal attacks and name calling. He knows my integrity is important to me. At least I get paid to do the billing.
I actually went to bed around midnight and ended up going outside instead of leaving the property. He did come back to the bedroom to tell me he was leaving for his trip. I was in the bathroom and he waited for me to come out. I didn't approach him. He was pleasant in his tone but sort of evasive. I did stop him and make him physically say goodbye. Yes, that may be pursuing, etc. However, he is flying over water today and I make it a rule to never not say goodbye when one of us is traveling. I don't want to regret it later on. Life is short.
