You don't have to apply the 48-hour rule (and it may not be in the books by the way) to everyday stuff like handling the kids. The idea is, don't act on any idea re: the R or the M or your divorce busting for 48 hours. Most ideas you have will be just effective implemented two days later as if enacted right then. Wait a day or two or more to see if you really want to do it. For example, if you see a strange phone call on your caller ID and you think your spouse is having an affair (or know they are but can't believe OM is calling your spouse), wait 48 hours rather than acting on your urge to call the number. You might learn some new fact that changes things or you might decide not to do it at all. The idea is when your emotions are geared up, you can't thik clearly. Don't act on emotions. Let emotions settle down, then act with a clear head.
