Thanks, WhyUs... no, she won't be able to change the structure on her own, so that's no issue. And legally, I suspect you're probably right about the rent situation. I think I can leverage some of what she owes me in the company buyout. I just don't want to do anything that a) lets her walk over me like a doormat, or b) foments further division between us. Got to find that fine line between the two.

Have yet to hear back on the situation. And interestingly, I'm quite detached about it all right now. Kids are here, older son is fixing a late dinner, younger son has me watching some stupid funny cartoon. Detachment is working tonight. I'm on the roller coaster where it isn't always. But right now, it's sweet. smile

Thanks WhyUs!
