Hi Brubeck
TBH, this doesn't surprise me. The MLCr has an idea of how the D is going to go and what's going to happen and is frequently surprised when we don't follow their script/pre-conceived notion.

I had several examples of that during our divorce mediation. They all left me scratching my head.

It seems from what I've read and what I've experienced that they think they're going to have everything go their way and are often surprised when it doesn't.

I know you're tired. I know you're beat up. I'm sorry this is happening and you can't get a decent night's sleep. It won't always be this way. Hang in there. You're going through the worst of it right now.

A box full of darkness.
It took me years to understand,
That this too, was a gift."
