But I'm wondering if this is wrong? Should I be now be saying "my home, my bathroom, etc" ?


Personally I think you should reinforce your attitude of "moving on" and "acting as if" in every way possible. So it's "your house" and "my house". Before W moved (but after she had a contract on her rental house) it was interesting because she'd call it "our house" or "our home" and "the other house". Now that she's moved we both call them "my house" and "your house". I've never called it her "home" though.

I'd also suggest taking down any photos of H, especially wedding photos. And if he has any momentos around then remove them, place them in a closet or something and then tell him where they are and that he's welcome to pick them up.
