Coming Back To Life

[BrightFuture]

Called H. Here is what he told me. He asked if I figured out the company finances. I told him that I was not able to reach the accountant yet. He said that he needs to get paid, so he could transfer money to me for the condo mortgage (so, thoughtful of him…) He told me that he was in his home town and is driving to Mexico from there. (Big relief for me.) He will come to our city to pick up his car at the end of the month when he will come for the college playoffs (a yearly tradition with his brother and me in the past, though I’m not included anymore.) I asked him what he was driving and he told me that he is driving his camper. I asked if he is going to leave it there. He said yes, so he could use it there a little and drive it back to his work state next April or May. He said that this way he will avoid flying. I guess his fear flying and unhappiness with the airport procedures are only getting worse, or maybe there is another reason which I don’t know about yet, because in my mind the reason of not wanting to fly still doesn’t justify driving the whole camper here, and paying for an insurance. Like I said before, he could have driven a rental car, which would be a lot cheaper. So, there something more than that in this decision, unless it is some kind of mlc bad reasoning.

He asked me if there anything he needs to take to the vacation home, like supplies and stuff, and I told him that everything should be good there. He also asked me to send him some addresses from the address book, so he could send the Christmas cards, he said that he already sent the cards to his siblings and some friends. This is interesting that he has not asked for that address book yet, and always wants me to look up the addresses there.

Another thing was that he asked was about what my son wanted for the New Years (we never celebrated Christmas, but celebrated the New Years), and asked if he and his GF were still together and where they lived. I told him that they are staying with me most of the time for now. Last year he left a card and a gift certificate for my son and his GF. This year he wants to know if my son has a list of what he wants.

I think I sounded a bit down during the conversation. I tried really hard to smile and be cheerful, but could not pull it through. I’m relieved though that he is not coming here just yet. I hope I will be able to pull myself together by the time he comes here at the end of the month.

So, the conclusion I made from this conversation is that I’m still in a limbo land. That he is nowhere closer to making one decision or another. Apparently this situation fits him very well. I might be wrong and he has plans to file after the New Years.
