21 years of marriage hanging by a thread

She came home early tonight...3 pm. Said she didn't feel well but would head back up to work later on this evening. Asked for our tax file since she filed an extension and then said if my insurance would cover her first IC visit on 4 Aug. I said 80% of it and she said she would probably cancel since she can't afford it. She said she couldn't afford her half of the summer school so I paid the whole thing. I put $5k back into our joint bank account and she has $10k in there. Any money I spend is both our money (marital assets) so I am tired hearing about money and told her so. She said thats all we have left. SO I said, You are right. You have been right all along and I will file for a divorce on Monday. She said because I am canceling my IC, and I said yep.

I went and got the kids and when I got home she was making supper, did the dishes and is playing old maid right now with the kids. She wanted to have a talk about being nice and going through mediation so it wont cost much. I said that is up to the advice of my lawyer. If she were to ask me anything more I will remind her what she told the MC yesterday that she doesn't trust any word that comes out of my mouth and if I do say something worth hearing I will have an ulterior motive and not a good motive at that. If that is so then it is a waste of time to have any conversation.

She has said once before cant we do this in a friendly manner. If she brings that up again I will remind her she said she doesn't care about anything or anyone. Who wants a friend like that? Who wants to be in a R with a person like that let alone try to work together to rebuild a R?

I told her I was going to a museum with the kids tomorrow in St Louis (2 hours away). She said St Louis again? I almost said what do you care. She can go up to work all day or do whatever it is she does. She spent the evening sewing tags back on the clothes she has been wearing for weeks to take back to the stores. Nice huh?

Monday I will call my L.
