One of the reasons I very rarely say negative things about others, and I used to be better about this, is because of what usually happens when I find out more information on the matter. I end up feeling like self-centered, whining jerk. Well here I am again....
I did receive those papers from my attorney's assitant. She mailed them just a few days after promising to get them out and well within her promise. Because I've moved and have been traveling as well, I didn't pick up the mail until yesterday. But there's more...
My attorney seemed distracted and inatentive, as if he didn't quite understand my case and how simple it really was. Probably most of us feel this way when don't know anything about the law. I'm sure he had all sorts of complexities to work with which I didn't know about. More than that, I learned monday that he is very ill. He probably didn't know it himself before he ended up in a crisis that put him in an Intensive Care Unit. His distraction and confusion were symptoms. So here I am feeling like a self-centered, whining jerk, for complaining about how long it took to get the first draft of the final decree.
They decree still need some edits, and there are a couple of other forms that need to be ready to make legal deadlines after we sign, but I will be working with someone else on that. I would gladly wait a year if it meant Tom could be OK again.
