Well, as I had mentioned in another thread, my wife continues full-speed-ahead. Apparently you can do all the divorce paperwork yourself on-line now (which seems horribly wrong somehow), which she's done and says she next needs to have them notarized.
Meanwhile, she's been packing up the last few days. The way we've worked it out is she's basically taking just her clothes, some linens, and about half the kitchen stuff (of which we had quite a bit anyway).
I feel like I'm taking it fairly well. Yes it feels like yet another step in the 'wrong' direction, but it doesn't set anything in stone (as 25 and others have pointed out in other people's threads). It's quite possible it's a NECESSARY part of the process as one friend said; two more supportive friends opined that "she needs to be the whole way out and gone before a change of heart is even POSSIBLE" and "I suspect she'll want to come back once she remembers how bad the real world [censored]."
Meanwhile, work, working out, raising money for ACS, trying to practice simple gratitude and the rest continue.
