I have been continuing on my job research, have an industry networking event to go to tomorrow which may help me to make some contacts. I am still thinking I may need to move from our family home in this regional location to the bigger city we moved from in order to be on the salary I will need to in a couple of years time to support myself, but that will not happen for several months until we sell the larger assets H has been in charge of selling.
H is happy as larry at the moment, as predicted by Snodderly. He seems happy to agree to what my separation entitlements are (at this stage!), is coming home in a few days to spend nearly all of his break with us, and is keen to go to an early xmas function with a group of my friends he has avoided completly for two years (kids party, toddlers really keen to go) and "play the happy family" in his words. "No need to leave early, we will just have a good time". Seems in no particular rush to chase the sale of those assets, has not rung for a couple of weeks to check. If we were not also happily in the middle of separation talks, it would be just like old times. A bit difficult for me to get my head around, and harder to detach, but I am just trying to make the most of each day.
