I'm not getting many responses here, I'm guessing it's because I'm still moderated and by the time my posts get approved they're already a few days old and therefore my thread never gets bumped to the top?

More journaling, helped W with some misc. stuff on her rental house over the weekend. Did some yard work, programmed the irrigation system and did some painting. Also purchased a bunch of furniture for her, it's all knock-down so I'll be assembling it for her as well. I'm sure it seems odd that I'm doing this (not exactly in line with detachment), but she's taking very little from our house so we came to an agreement that I'd pay for some of her furniture and help set it up to compensate her for leaving most everything behind. She's still probably a week or two from getting set up over there and moving out of our house.

Interestingly she refers to our house as "home" and the rental as "the other house" when talking to me or the kids about it. Seems like she'd call them my house and her house, she probably will after she moves.

We continue to get along great, surprisingly we even ML twice over the long weekend. I'm not reading anything into it, just taking things a day at a time. W is excited about getting into her own place, so I'm just letting it play out and not pushing any R talks or anything at this point. I just hope and pray that the separation will give her time to sort things out and that she'll come around to thoughts of R on her own.
