Yeah, it was tough. We both learned to set ourselves up a daily schedule that really minimized our contact with each other. I would work during the day (and she would sometimes too), and about the time I'd get home in the evening, she'd be headed off to work again, I'd feed the kids, and then I'd head for the gym to work out as she was driving HOME from the gym (she works there).

When we WERE in the house together, we were at various times cordial (but not overly friendly), and sometimes we would go 2-3 days without speaking to each other. We only had four or five angry outbursts during the whole thing, as we both made it a point to try NOT to do that -- especially in front of the kids.

E-mail and text messages work great for the logistical HH stuff.
