Will wonders never cease?
If you have a freakishly good memory or you're unhealthily obsessed with me*, you may remember that when I first broke the news of my impending transition to Nibs, she was dead set against selling the Abbey. Nearly four years and a recent chat with her shrink later, she's changed her mind.
How do I feel about this? On the one hand it'll do wonders for the money situation. It isn't bad, but could certainly stand to be better; Nibs has visions of both her and me living in apartments with space for the Wendling. (That could lead to "fun" with schedules and trans-lacunean commutes, but I think that would be a good problem to have.) That house always did feel more like Nibs' home than mine: just look at what's on the walls. It's also one less big bone of contention for our eventual divorce.
On the other hand, we've been the only occupants of that house. We planted the sapling spruce that's now up to the second story eaves. The Wendling has lived there for nearly as long as he can remember, and we know how well Aspies deal with change. And so much for socking money away in a home equity.
*In which case, why haven't you asked me out? Hmph!
