Well, today was pretty much uneventful. I went out and bought some DVD organizers. The kids went ahead and decided to turn the packing foam into a nice powdering of snow over the entire living room. My wife came in and asked me what I was doing and I showed her the DVD organizer. She looked like she was about to say something, but didn't. She just changed the subject.
Then I took the kids to my parents house since my parents just got back from Florida, plus it gave my wife some time to work on her assignment.
When I got back she had to run to Target to pick up a few things, so I put the kids to bed.
Not much to report...not always a bad thing.
However, last night there was something...odd. She asked me if I wanted a passport. She was going to order them for her and the kids and since they're good for ten years, even if I don't have a need now, who knows what will happen in 10 years.
This is odd because...
1. If she wanted a divorce, why would she care?
2. If she is going to get a passport now, would that make sense since she would legally go back to her maiden name within a few months? While she's been acting irrational, she is far from absent-minded and I know she would have caught that. So it would appear that on some level she is not expecting this divorce to go through. I think that keeping the divorce on the table is a sort of safety-net for her while she gets her emotions back together.
However, even if I am correct on 2, I still need to be careful and keep at it. Luckily, the changes that I am making I am making for me this time around and not for her. So even if I bring this down a couple of defcons the changes will still be coming.
Oh, and I don't mind cutting into my thread. I kind started looking at it as a very small support group/therapy session a couple of weeks ago. No matter how similar or different our sitches are, we all know the pain and anxiety of having a M on the brink and I think its a good thing to have the support for one another.
