She must be seeing a lawyer...what now?

[Awoken]

W texted me last night saying she is "mad because you want me out of the house". All I did was ask her what her time line was for the divorce, and now she says I'm the one forcing everything. I just told her "I'm sorry things are so tense in the house right now", and then stopped responding. I was playing music with friends anyway.

Tensions in the house have really escalated. I left my briefcase unattended for 30 minutes, and she went through it pulling out all the papers. She tried to put them back undisturbed, but c'mon.

School was canceled for the first couple of hours this morning due to snow, including her school where she teaches. Nonetheless, she got up and left the house bright and early, leaving me with having to cancel work to get the kids to school. It's fine, I enjoyed the extra time with S13.

He's not doing so great. He was very angry this morning about all things in general. I suppose that is normal for a teenager, but I'm sure the sitch makes it worse. He turns 14 this friday, and mom will be out of town doing a tri-athalon. She's never missed a birthday before. Money is tight, and she bought a $1200 bicycle. When she asked the kids to take a picture of her with it, they both thought she had lost her mind.

onwards, right?
