Feeling quite up beat today thanks to a conversation with my Solicitor to sort out the final papers for the financial order. It would appear H has made a few unexpected yet positive changers to the order so although he's still determined to keep most of the money he has decided to give me my spousal maintenance now and not after the house sells. This will be one massive financial help to me and will relieve so much stress and worry as he legally doesn't have to pay me this until it's sold. I was expecting to discover that this would be instead of the money from the savings but apparently he's still willing to give me that to. And finally he has withdrawn any claim on the contents of the house and Is allowing me to keep everything or sell what I don't want. Wow! this is a far cry from a year ago when he wanted to leave me with nothing. He knows I'm struggling finically but didn't appear to care but perhaps he has a conscience after all. He's also agreed to take over paying the insurance for his dog and so I gave him all the info but he's now insisting that we sit down together so he can show me what he has found and we can decide together. Needless to say I'm a little shocked by this sudden change in attitude. I can't help but think it will be followed by a big knife in the back as in previous encounters with H. He's also going away soon and for the first time in 3 years he's not going alone he's going away with his sister . He's told D to be a good girl for her mummy and to look after me which seems to be becoming a running theme with H .
So much strangeness in the space of less than a week it's hard to get my head around as it feels like after a long time of slow movement things are not just happening again but the movement is becoming fairly rapid. I just hope that all this sudden activity isn't going to bring me more misery.
