WR, His lawyer may not get in touch w/him until next week. They don't always drop what they are doing to contact their clients, but in fact the clients "take a number" so to speak. So, I would venture to say next week may be the lucky week for him to find out about the situation regarding money.
As for the sweaters. Yeah, they hated them when they lived w/us, but once the switch is flipped, they may like them. It's crazy...but they do tend to do the opposite in all areas once in crisis. I would be honest w/him when you do give him the sweaters and ties that your son has been using some of them for work. Let him decide whether son can keep them or not.
I'm glad you had fun last evening. Sorry you didn't win, but you had a good time and that's what counts. Now it is time to look towards the holidays and see what transpires on Friday, the 13th.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
