Thanks for the replies. I think I'll just ask if she'll write a positive letter and see what kinda response I get. Fingers crossed.

Hi all. First post here. Someone who I asked for an LOR just replied back to say that she would be "more than happy" to write one. However, the reply came one week after the initial request and I had to send a follow-up to confirm. I've never had her take one week to respond to me on anything before when I was still working with her. I understand Thanksgiving is busy for everyone so maybe it's not a big deal. However, she also suggests that she's not sure how useful her letter will be, given that there were issues on the project that we were working on together. She also asks if I've considered asking someone else. This leads me to think that whatever she'll write is gonna be a stinker which is rather upsetting given that I feel I've done my best for her. Should I just go ahead and ask if she'll write me a positive letter or would that come across as awkward and too confrontational. Or should I just hope that the letter from her wouldn't sabotage my application. Opinions???
