;)Absolutely Starsky, I of course told her I was writting down her list and would talk to the lawyer first. I said we could meet up possibly late this week to follow up on details and discuss.

There was one more weird thing she asked for but I didn't even write it down because I told her I didn't think that would work. She wanted to alternate years we each claimed S on our taxes. I was kind of dumbfounded by that one. I said I was pretty sure that was a residency thing and he was claimed by the person he lived with for any given year.

I have a friend at work I talked to about this too. She suggested I allow W to stay at our new home in NC when she visits to save on costs as W wants to withold those from support. I don't know that I even want to launch that idea until I feel like its something to be comfortable with.

W did a lot of emotional unloading last night that is still unwinding in my mind. She told me that she wasn't happy with her life and that she didn't feel good about who she was. She felt like I should know that she doesn't just sit around feeling good about who she is now. That she has done some bad things and knows they weren't right. I didn't know what to do with that one but say I'm sorry you're not happy with your life and move on with the conversation. Was that cold?
