WAW to MLC XH bookends (it's complicated!)

[Unbeatab]

Sooo.... I'll respond to your questions when I have a better chance to think them through, I promise!

Bizarre touch 'n go this morning!!! Day 21 of detaching.... he calls every 3 days, and I've only called him once. He called to say that he was going to call an HVAC company near me to book an appointment, but stopped himself because he realized it might be overstepping bounds. He then went on to say that WE (?!?) might want to do this that and the other with the house, and I very firmly stated what I intended to do about this that and the other. "Well, I figured we could use my line of credit to pay for....". I very firmly told him to use his line of credit to get the dream camper van that he wants to get. I am so proud of myself for not adding "You know, the one that you had to keep passing up on because of us!" He didn't skip a beat and said that he's at a job site (huh, back to reporting his whereabouts...), and there's one near the site that he wants to get a price on. He also tested the waters about coming out here to visit by making a comment about not driving out here JUST to bring space heaters... I gave up weeks ago on him ever mailing the birth certificates and quilt... I'm still flabbergasted by the whole exchange!
