The atty just surprised me. In our last conversation, I got the impression he was ok with me paying this over time...I didn't anticipate $3800 within two weeks. But, I will regroup. And, I was clear with him that I didn't feel angry or anything. I realize he gave me a break. What I'm angry about is the sorta surprise. I've met with him three times in the past month...IDK. I'm stressed.

And, I don't think I have been resentful or angry in any recent posts about my parents. In fact, I think I've caused myself some extra worry because I have wanted to avoid asking for more help. I really have wanted to figure this one out alone...but, dammit...not sure that will happen.
