Feel like I'm living the movie Groundhog Day...

Journaling... didn't get a chance to last night as the timing just didn't work. Quiet day. Son and I stayed around the house yesterday as I needed a day to just chill. He wanted to make cookies so we ended up making cookies, an apple pie, and a french silk pie. It did make me chuckle since I know my w will be minorly annoyed that my pies turned out so well. My W can cook pretty well but can't bake to save her life... I'm the opposite, I can bake really well but I'm so-so at cooking. I've always thought that's because I'm pretty good at following directions (which is all baking really is) and my W is better at improv on the fly.

Very little interaction with W all day. One phone call because she couldn't get into an online student loan account; turns out neither could I. Picked up SS and SD from their dad and got everyone in bed. W got home from work and I made myself largely scarce after a little convo about the kids. W had brought home a salad and sat down to eat it. She grabbed the paper and was looking through the "for rent" want ads section... so I left her alone. She doesn't get home until 9:30 and since I wanted to be up and running this morning I headed to bed at 10:00 which really minimizes the interaction. As I went to bed she was online looking at house rentals some more.

I didn't say anything or even react. That is just one more symptom, along with like a hundred other symptoms, of the bigger WAW-syndrome/mindset. I've decided I can't react to every symptom anymore because they are just debilitating to spend all that time reacting. But each one is like a little knife. Death by a thousand cuts I guess.

Bleh... just got off the phone with her she's looking for login info for her accounts. More consolidating and prepping herself for the split. Such is life, right? At least I was back to running this morning after the long weekend hiatus.

My goal today is to only be on here three times. Now, lunch, and later in the afternoon. I have to get more work done at work Hope everyone has a good day.
