He did all that right after you called him? Made a chore chart and everything?
Yes Amy, he did this all right after I called him. He must has sat this afternoon at work and figured this stuff out. He made the chart and everything. I am so impressed with him.

So remind me again why he hasn't come home? That sounds like a mom and dad working together for the good of the kids. How come he doesn't just do that from home?
He hasn't come home because he wants his space. He likes being able to live his own life. He has never been on his own so this is his chance. He needs to get this out of his system. Now you know why I hang in there. He still has concerns for us and helps me out whenever I need it especially with the kids. We do work together well now. I will take what I can get. We work so well together that he stayed at the house with the pets when the kids and I went on vacation.

And we REALLY need any kind of positive role models on here, so please stop feeling guilty about good things happening in your life and hang around. Shoot, I'd hope you'd hang around even if your marriage was 100% back on track and everything was 100% dandy! I know I will hang around when that happens for me.
Unfortunately, you all are probably stuck with me for a long time. Through good or bad I will be here. You all have shown me through my guilt stages that I am needed.
I haven't heard from him yet but I do know he talked with them. My youngest called to tell me that she didn't go with him. Evidentally, he would not take her to the store to get the game she wanted either.
