DnJ, we just popped on at the same time but I have to go and patch a tile floor at the rental below me. Just bought some tile/grout in one thing and am using hex tile bigger than the hex tile that peeled off, leaving huge bald spot that got bigger and bigger as H got crazier and crazier. At one point a few years ago he finally said he'd fix it so I bought a few tiles that didn't match at all in a huge rush to try to meet the window of his suddenly agreeing to fix something around here. He of course didn't do it, three years later the bald spot is as big as a foot on a tile floor and so I decided to fix it today, however sloppy and mismatched it is. It only has to last til I can redo the bathroom! After I redo the roof and the basement?

Oh well, house flip will pay for all!

I am in a weird state since seeing H's latest motion. Did I mention part of it was him moving back in, by moving to the rental unit below (without paying rent of course). He'd rather propose that insane solution that would drive us into foreclosure than get 50K now and another 50K in a year and the whole thing in 2-3 years. MLCers are so weird. I feel like I am at a crossroads of having to see him truly as he is in order to be able to do what I have to do for my kids. I get surprised every time by how... ungentlemanly... he is. He's truly such a blackguard. He would have had such disdain for a man like that before, but maybe that was an all an act because it mirrored my values.


I believe I will see the bounty of the Lord in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord with courage.
Be stouthearted, and wait for the Lord.
