How many licks does it take...?

[2thepoint]

Oh boy!!! I think there is a R discussion headed my way in the near future. I was at the house today which is a wreck as it has been for months. W still pretty nice to me, though. She has been talking about selling the house as has been her plan/desire for a long time now. I ask her if she would like my help cleaning up the place. And reminded her that the reason I stopped was because it seemed to upset her. She then goes into how hard it is to keep up with things, how I never did any house work, blah,blah, blah, (still a lot of revision going on). Anyway, she says yes, she would appreciate my help.

Then I got to thinking that I am not going to willingly go down this cake eating path of hers without us talking about the giant elephant in the room. So I said that we should make time to discuss US. She said she agreed. So at some point in the next day or so, we're going to have a little talk.

BTW we are all invited to friends for Thanksgiving, which was feeling a little weird to me. But anyway.... Any suggestions about what to say, what not to say, etc.? I have no expectations either way and am at the point where if she said this is it, I'd be ready to move on down the road. So....?
