W came home after work last night. She made us all breakfast this morning. While eating, FedEx delivered a package... It was a signed copy of the lease for our rental property.

A little background...
The house we rent out is the house W owned before we married. The current tenants are leaving the end of April. I've been working with a new management company to find new tenants. I've done all the work with out her help, which is fine.

Anyway, I hadn't told her that we found someone who passed the background checks. She got upset when I showed her the signed lease.

I said, "what's wrong? I thought you'd be happy we got someone in there right away so it doesn't sit empty."
She responded, "didn't you think we might need it as a bridge?"
Me, "a bridge for what?"
Her, "we don't know what's going to happen with us. I thought maybe we'd need it if we are living separately."
Me, "I see..."
Her, "you have thought about that?"
Me, "no. I hadn't. But we couldn't afford two houses either way."
Her, "well you could have at least told me someone was signing."
Me, "you haven't really been talking to me much lately."
Her, "I've been nothing but nice to you!" And she left the room.

So I'm guessing she was upset because she saw it as me taking away an escape option for her. Which isn't the case... We really can't afford both houses.

It also hurt to hear she's thinking about physically leaving. frown

She works for a while today. I took S to an indoor playground. We had a blast climbing through tubes and going down slides. I think I found a new activity to do with him on a regular basis!
