Mike, Just catching up on your thread and wanted to just throw some support your way. I glad to see that you are both in counseling and that the C is pro marriage. Problem though is that she sounds JUST like my wife with respect to the attitude. She's agreed to the counseling just to make things easier without really committing to fixing anything.
My recommendation... Detach, detach, detach.

I recall that in the 4 weeks OM was gone the last time W was able to suck me back in and each time I got close to her she'd remind me that she wanted the D and would then say she had to move out (I think we had that conversation 4 times during that month).
I would hate to see this happen over again. Try not to let yourself get sucked back in to a false sense of security especially during the holiday season.
Your Christmas shopping also sounds just like mine. I had lots of ideas and saw many things that would be perfect for W, but there will be no gift exchange between us this year. There will only be the gifts from the kids.
Good luck this holiday. Shoot me an email if you want.
