Well, the day has arrived. She said nothing to me about the trip since she dropped the bomb Saturday. She didn't even pack last night. So this morning I went for out for a run, and when I got back she was gone (she did leave a note saying she has left for the airport). I was guessing that she would leave in the morning. This gives them a chance to squeeze in a "nooner" before their meeting this evening... then more fun tonight.
yoyo, this is a no-fault state. She can file and get a divorce without my cooperation. She even went so far as to tell me that if I claim she committed adultery in my response to her filing, she will file an argument that there was no adultery. What???? I will need to hire an attorney (she already has one), and tell (pay) him to stall.
Although I agree with the consensus that going camping is the perfect solution, it's probably not going to happen. Mother Nature is conspiring against me, as thunderstorms are forecast for the next few days here. We will find something to do outside the home. Probably dodge the raindrops an amusement park or something. But we will NOT be home when she arrives. I will see to that.
One more thing, before I forget. If you recall in the beginning of this thread, I mentioned that I was being a little extra nice to the wife (making her a special salad, etc). Coach advised against this, as it could be viewed as pursuing. Agree 100%. No more special effort from now on. Just gonna be cordial, and steer any extra effort or energy to the KIDS! They deserve the extra effort, not her. Bottom line: focus on GAL activities and kids!
