LOL.... Well maybe the next time I just might do the dance. I think we can watch it on youtube and get the steps right!
Snodderly I too had wondered if his sitting in the driveway was either some sort of control thing, or maybe he was just in his secret way feeling just a little bit of home. He does this often I guess. I will be home 3 days this week from work, and we will see what transpires Tuesday and Wednesday with driveway tactics.
Just had a good conversation with MIL. She called to ask about Christmas presents from the girls. Apparently XH told her that Christmas was a "financial nightmare", and now XH is down to pawning things and putting stuff on Ebay to try and make money. He said this to the girls too and I just got a report of it today. I think OW quit her job... again. MIL said XH looked really pale and he just doesn't look very happy. MIL said she's really thinking that perhaps she might tell XH he can move back home to his apartment at her house if he needs to get away from OW. Yet At the same time she doesn't want to pry and say " hey if your miserable and stuck between a rock and a hard place, just dump the woman and move back home till you get back on your feet son". MIL has mixed feelings about helping him given she's aware of how he blew money and now is really stuck between a rock and a hard place.
I told her I felt he's in crisis and explained that what he's done, down to blowing a huge amount of money and moving in with the likes of that woman is very typical for life crisis for men. She agrees and now says her ex did the same thing at 40.
In lieu of the Christmas spirit.... Im feeling another wave of forgiveness and compassion to my MLCer... AGAIN. This time though.... work really hard on 0 expectations.
