Marital problem

My friend called me up this afternoon because she needed someone to hear her out. Her problem is that she had a fight with her husband and suddenly he told her he is doubting if their son is his. She was devastated with his revelations. She wanted to get out of their house and live somewhere else instead. Her first decision was to file a divorce. But I told her to be calm. She can prove to him the boy is his own, through DNA testing. But her pride was crushed that she believes she don’t want to live with him anymore. I told her to talk to her husband with the matter calmly. Or maybe they needed space, but not legal separation. She should not be angry when she makes a decision. She needed to think it over before she finally decides.

Old RV

I went to open an account in a particular bank this morning. I am required by my RV buyer to have an account in that bank because he will be paying me through fund transfer. Yes, I am selling my RV. I have to because my aunt needs cash for her cancer treatment. I am letting go my old RV which I share a lot of memories with -memories in different places and different times. I will never forget how rv towing would help me fast in the middle of the road. Those are memories I can tell my grand kids –memories of me being independent in life. I have learned so much in life with my old RV. I am not saying goodbye to it with a heavy heart because it’s equivalent is an extension of my aunt’s life.
