Thanks Job, in truth the trip up to the marital home took a lot out of me and I have felt under the weather the past couple of days. At some point I'll contact XH and clarify how the rest of the house is going to get cleared. I hope not to have to go up again and I have removed a lot of stuff already. I'm hoping he'll step up to the plate but if not I'll need to make plans to get things sorted.
Interesting seeing our mutual friend this week. She is the only person in our break up that tried to tread the difficult line of remaining friends with both of us. She's done as well as she can I think and has struggled with it. If you recall, XH told her the R was over a while before he told me. He was telling me 'I'm confused and don't know what I want.' She ended up telling him he had to tell me or she would - ugh.
Anyway, she doesn't hear from XH at all and hasn't for months. From her tone, she's pretty hurt and knows he's been in the area without getting in touch. She now contacts my SS directly and makes plans to meet up with him. Next weekend, she and her S are getting together with SS and his Mum. It's funny that all of us know eachother through the common link of XH - but he has totally removed himself from the picture.
Been at the bookstore today and hoping for a quietish weekend to recover from a difficult week. Going to see a movie tomorrow night and will cook lunch for the parents on Sunday. No further news as yet on the survey of the MH - sounds as though the buyers want to get an expert in to look at some timber, so that's the next hurdle. They sound like rather particular buyers, which probably isn't great news for us!!
Have a good weekend all xx
