Sparks - I am going to try to aim for that approach. Do something with my son and see if she show's interest. Aye or nay, it doesn't matter. But I will mention to her that our son would enjoy it if all of us can have some fun.

UPDATE 6pm
My wife comes by to fetch our son and take more of her things away. She tells me that she will clean up after she's done with everything. I said, ok.

It was a pretty quiet affair - she packed upstairs and carried things back to the Nissan (which I thought she wanted to sell while her dad was here this week, but haven't. Odd.) while I played at the sink with my son. Later I took him to the Nissan and buckled him in. As she was getting in the car, my wife asked where I was working. I said San Ramon. She wanted to know with which company. So I told her and she asked how it's going. I responded and said, "It's going great!"

Then we said our goodbyes for the evening.

So either my wife is keen with what I'm doing now, or she just wants to know that I am finally financially able to move on with my life. I don't know.
