Sh finally stated that we could get a divorce and continue to live in the house together. No need to even tell the children. Have you all ever heard of that before? Sounds crazy to me.
Me too. This isn't any saner:

Her other suggestion was that we get an apartment and each of us would live in it for a week at a time and then swap to the house. Thereby allowing the kids to continue to live in the same home. Sounds like this would be an absolute mess to me. 7 years of this??? I don't think that will work. Has anyone done this???

This afternoon, I began to feel this calm come over me. I am not sure if that is a sign of subtle detachment or acceptance of the reality of my sitch, but at least for a few hours, it was nice.
Keep working on you and being happy with you. This will get better.

From here on in it is time for her to, as GIMA would say "put on the big girl panties" and see what this will all be about. Sad, but necessary.
I got that quote from Greek. And it is very true.
Hang in there. You are doing fine. You will be up and down for the immediate future, but it does get easier.
