Bea, I know the time is different for MLCer. It did seem like it stopped for me too. Only now I’m feeling that I am finally starting to move on a little. There is no question that my sitch is a lot better compared to others, and yours specifically.

Georgia, thanks for stopping by. Yes, H wants to simplify his life, not “work” on something, LOL.

Job, thanks for b-day wishes. I do have things to do this week, but H keeps “popping up” (more on that later.)

Wonka, have you officially declared me a single woman, “Mr. Bright”, LOL?

I started a new week at work today, and there is so much to learn and do. I thought that after the last text exchange with H I could breath for a couple of weeks without him reminding me about himself. Well, he sends another text today, right before when I was going to a meeting. He asked what version of business software we have and if he needs to buy a single or multiuser one. I replied a couple of hours later, after the meeting, saying that I think it is a single user, but I could be wrong and I would have to look it up when I get home. He replied that the upgrade is on sale until tomorrow. I didn’t reply.

I know that the messages about the upgrades show up periodically when I open the software. H never paid much attention to them, especially in the last couple of years. So, WTH? A guy who wants to get rid of the computers all together is now trying to keep up with the upgrades. In his text to me he actually asked if “we have been sharing” the software versus having multiple users. We? If he is trying to take over the business activities because I got a full time job and not involved in business anymore, who cares if this is a single user or multiple users? He could have done the same thing here as he did with the credit card, like update the things without letting me know. I don’t get it.

Another thing… I have received a B-day card from his other brother and his wife who live in a different state. Obviously it was the wife who wrote on the card, but I got the mini letter in it, not just b-day wishes. She told me about her kids, about her dogs and about her broken arm. At the end she said that she misses seeing me. That was another WTF moment. She didn’t write like that since H left. They were always very formal with their cards. I will write something similar to her when I send her a card for her b-day in August.

Now I am hoping for a productive week, hopefully without H’s interventions. I really need to concentrate on me and my work right now.
