Finally

I spoke not too long ago. Just as I thought, her mom had created an amergency situation. She gave a handyman a check that would bounce.

Something like that is embarrassing but not an emergency normally, however, this handyman is a genuinely nice person and mom-in-law can't afford to lose him. Other handymen have taken advantage of her.

So straightening that out created a domino effect that's normally reserved for motion pictures.

I feel better speaking with my wife. My anxiety was starting to get the better of me, I don't like it when routines are altered. It's usually because bad things happen.
