Old dog seeks new trick 14

[Old Dog]

Today, our tenants moved out. This means we are under financial pressure as we still have to pay the rent for the hose ww and the kids live in, the mortgage for the house we own and I also have to pay rent for the flay I live in ... and ww had no job. Mind you she's still talking of taking the kids on holiday with money her mother is giving her.

We met at our house this afternoon to check the house and so the tenants could hand over the keys. I rolled up with S13 and the top down and parked right outside, so this was the first time she'd seen my new car. I parked it out of sight yesterday and then thought why am i doing this? She knows I've got it as S(now)13 showed her a pic on my fb page. Anyway she didn't mention it, not that I thought she would.

Again we didn't speak other than business. I gave S13 a hug said goodbye to him, ignored her and drove off back to my flat.

It'll take a while longer to be anything other than just civil I think. I'm not at the friendly neighbour stage but I'm not trying to kill her with evil looks now and I'm not simmering with rage.

Detachment is good.
