I'm sorry- I didn't mean to worry anyone. Physically I'm tired (not getting enough sleep and shlepping boxes around), and I don't know what I'm feeling right now- it's a mix of feeling lost, out of sorts, and some relief.
The important thing is that you're OK right now.
Just focus on getting yourself set up. And take care of yourself.
This situation with the kids may not last; this is a big change for them right now, but they will get used to you two living apart.
As for your husband being extra-nice to you, I don't buy it. He either wants to put on a show for everyone else -- "I don't understand why SpyBunny is acting like this, the poor dear" -- or he wants to charm his way back into your good graces. Abusers do not like it when their victims show backbone.
