So - since getting top dollar for the house is integral to YOUR future plans - set an appointment to get the tenting done on a Monday, so you can recruit the kids to help you bag stuff over the weekend. No, it's not fair, H should have to do all the work relating to the divorce, but really, don't bite off your nose to spite your face. It's in YOUR best interest to get this house sold for the best price. Plus, I suspect that the more gung-ho you are on moving forward, the more you drop the rope, the less sure your H is going to be about his decision.
