Two women, who had been friends for years, decide to go for a "Girls Night Out", and were decidedly over-enthusiastic on the cocktails.
Incredibly drunk and walking home, they really needed to pee. Since they were passing a graveyard, one of them suggested they do their business behind a head stone.
The first woman had nothing to dry herself with, so she thought she'd take off her panties, use them, and then throw them away.
Her friend was wearing a rather expensive underwear set and didn't want to ruin hers, but was lucky to salvage a large ribbon from a wreath that was on one of the graves. So she dried herself with the ribbon.
The next day the first woman's husband phoned the other husband and said, "This girl's night out thing has got to stop right now. My wife came home last night without her panties!"
That's nothing," said the other husband, "Mine came home with a card stuck to her butt that said,
"FROM ALL OF US AT THE FIRE STATION, WE'LL NEVER FORGET YOU!" ===========
Hopefully when you & I do the girls night out.. there is 7 /11 close by

Taking the road less traveled because those encountered on the way may be just as unique.
I'm so sorry your H did this. You said that his reasoning was that he "didn't trust you". Did he fill you in on how he plans to support the family in spite of this move, or does he really expect you to take care of the kids with no money coming in? To me, it sounds like he's been expecting you to file, and beat you to the financial punch. What else does he have up his sleeve?- Be prepared for more surprises. Did you talk to your L?
On your Amex, is it equally under both your names or is it his card and you also can use it? It may matter - I'm not sure he can cancel it alone if it's a joint one, but not sure. If you're really worried, maybe you should call them and explain sitch and instruct them that there are legal proceedings going on and that you are telling them it is not ok to cancel it without both of your written approvals. Never hurts to mention the law- people usually pay attention :-).
Just thinking of you today- let us know how you're doing.

No it's not joint. The card is in his name. Thank you for thinking of me.
I'm just filled with have to's today. I feel really tired. I heated my pool two days ago an I still haven't been able to get in there but I will try today.
Not sure if he comes home tomorrow or next wed. I'm gonna be stressed out if it's tomorrow. I don't want to look at him
Somebody wake me up I'm having a bad dream!

I hope you have another week, too. You could use it. Do you have anything under your name that he can't shut off? I worry about you not having any financial leverage/control here. As CG says, you WILL be fine, but it would be nice if you didn't also have to worry about money right now more than necessary.
Please do a few "to dos", jump in pool (you can afford 20 minutes, right???), then resume list if it makes you feel good to get it all done.
Please take care of and be kind to yourself today and this week. It's a really rough patch, but you seem to be getting through it--
