Well I hope you do Indy. Concentrate on yourself and your kids. Your wife can do the same. Let her do what she is going to do. Its her choice. She knows your thoughts as do your kids. Your 40 years young. Time to make some new friends via circles. Between now and Jan 1st. No booze or other stuff. You got to be on your game. As the next month is going to be as tough as you make it. When in doubt go for a walk... No R talk. Space is your friend. Let her work on her new life. She needs to put the effort in to move. Do not help in any part of it. None of it. GAL. Lovingly detach. If she asks for help be busy doing stuff on the house or work. Smile and say your busy but may be able to help later or pick up some boxes on the way home from work.... I bought tote boxes and rubbermaid boxes I would go through a room and remove her stuff in that and garbage bags. Just left mystuff or stuff I claimed. I also decluttered. I now have one room in the house called the wayward room where there is just tote boxes and garabage bags of wayward stuff. And there is two rooms left to declutter and I am done. Wow do I sound harsh there...
I still cannot believe your doing the trip. The whole family is up for this??? I know I could not do that.
