WAW has been gone for almost a week. I am surprised at how well that week has gone. For the most part, I have been feeling much better than I was during the weeks leading up to her moving. I don't know if it's the Prozac or simply that the pressure is gone. Or maybe, the reality simply isn't as bad as I thought it would be.
WAW bought groceries for the kids and I yesterday as per our agreement. She also made dinner for S16 and she and I. My son and I were working out while she made dinner and she left right after eating, so I actually saw her very little. I was polite, but distant.
At one point she said "aren't you going to talk to me?" I had said a few things to her, but didn't feel like being all friendly with the woman who left me less than a week earlier. When she left she asked for a hug and I simply said "no". I have done a good job of moving on, and think hugging her would set me back. I did say thanks for dinner and good bye.
I am going to email her today to request that she removes the final few items from my closet and to get the mail key (she still has it!!).
We will see each other at her Grandmother's funeral on Wednesday, and then breifly next Sunday as well. No dinner together then though, since she has her company XMAS party that day.
It's odd that yesterday, she seemed like a guest at my house. Not my wife. I think that's a good thing...yes?
