Anyway, good for you for being proactive. I envy you the real estate prices! Homes, even apartments in this city run $400,000-1,000,000 (including fixer uppers).
Yeah, well, I live in the middle of no where. The house I'm looking at is definitely and fixer-upper. On average, homes run @ $100k. Regardless, it's a pretty good deal.
I have been following Pinhead's thread and feel like I am in much the same frame of mind. I know it's all a personal decision as how to "let go". My W won't leave the home. Period. There's no forcing her to leave. I thought if I lined up a home for myself and the kids I would have an easier time with letting her go. OTOH, I won't be the one to leave. The same reason I don't want to be the one to file. There may come a time I have to change my reasoning, but I'm not there, yet. I fully understand where and why Pin is doing what he is.
Boys had a ball game last night. They got beat really bad, it wasn't pretty. I told her before I left for work that I expected her to save me a seat. She didn't have to talk to me and didn't have to stay there after I got there but I was going to sit with my kids/family. She did save me a seat and was at least polite.
The good news: one twin scored 8 points. The bad news: that's all the points our team scored. (other team had 86 points ) A lot of really mad parents last night. Talk about running up the score!
