I Should Have Known Better
The woman who I helped get away from her abusive, controlling husband, that I THOUGHT was scheming to go back to him called me at 330am to ask me to come get a dresser out of her house. She's giving me EVERYTHING I want minus the TV. Her house is almost empty and I was about to get the dinnerware. She had made plans to have her tv set shipped on Saturday and she was scheduled to "move" out on August 4. She wasn't even giving notice to her job which is so stressful that when she walks in the door she gets stomach pains. It one of the reasons she NOW says that she's leaving this area. So I went to get the dresser like she asked me to without a second thought. This afternoon at about 345PM she calls me frantic and tells me that she's thrown out her wallet with everything in it and asked me to come help her look to make sure it's not just misplaced and so I do. The wallet is gone. She is on the phone talking to the bank canceling all of her cards and out of the blue she announces that she isn't leaving now and that she's gonna stay here because she's thrown her wallet out. I was like....huhnh? She said she can't leave cause she had her birth certificate and social security card in the wallet and she couldn't leave. I told her that all the papers she had could be replaced. She said yeah but she was gonna stay here and my mind did a flip flop cause it didn't make sense. She loses her wallet and that is a deciding factor in her moving or not? She has emptied her place and said that she didn't care about not having anything in it now because she's leaving and now way out of the back court she pops up and says she's not leaving in a very adamant way and I'm confused that she would just drop her life like that over a miss placed wallet. I told her if she wanted her things back she could have them and she said no she'd start over. I was like alright then and I left. Not even 20 minutes later she's calling and telling me that she's gonna go ahead and leave after all. My brain cells fizzled for a couple few seconds and then I asked her if she was sure and she said yes. All I could do was shake my head at the night and day of the whole situation. NOW she says I can have all of the stuff in her house including the television. I think I'll just hold onto the things just in case she changes her mind in a day or two! She is the nicest person you'd want to me but she's got something going on not quite right in her thought process. Well, I'll believe she's leaving when I see her actually LEAVING. Something else might happen that will make her see gloom and doom and make change her mind again.
