Debbie, you're reading a page out of my book. However, Jerry has used up all of his chances. No more for him. I hope things work out for you the way you want them. Your arrangements sound very similar to what Jerry and I had but it didn't work. I'm wishing you better luck than I had.
Jerry has been doing what he should have been doing the whole week after his little tantrum. He gave himself a week just off the top of his head, never stopping to think of all the work he had to do for HIMSELF. He's also finishing up the work that he commited to doing when we moved into this place. BUT... I can tell he's having difficulty pulling away from here. Not even gonna pretend I understand him! He's living out of his RV and for the last two nights, he's slept in it in the storage space here in the park!! I don't get it!! But hey! If that's what it takes to have him treat me decently and do what he's supposed to have done months ago, I'm all for it! I'm not having any emotional problems with it, either, and I'm still on track with my independence. I REFUSE to feel sorry for him. Obiously, this is what he wants. Don't need to understand it.
