She was back to get some stuff and sat with the cat for a while. Surprised me texting on a Sat at 8:00. I said if it was ok I was still hanging out resting from my on-call schedule. I was just hanging on the couch, nodding off a bit while she took a few more boxes of stuff we had already packed up back when both of us were supposed to be moving to the new house. <Sigh>
Mentioned alternating time with him (not to make light of those with kids - can't even imagine what it must be like for you. We're one of those annoying childless couples with spoiled pets). She was even nice to the cat she doesn't really like.
Don't know if she's getting more comfortable being on her own (such as it is - last night she asked me to check the credit card statement to see if the couch she ordered had been billed. Remember, this was *her* card before and she was mad that I had used it to rent the car when she left me stuck here) but it's nice that she no longer sends angry messages, things from the past, or anything about OM. Of course my mind still goes on it's own flights of fancy now and then but I seem to be getting better at stopping it. So, hoping she's burned through her anger phase, and doesn't loop back into it.
Anyway, less awkward today, and even smiled as she left. It is a bit sad having interactions like friends or business partners, but it's better than fighting or arguing. I cannot even imagine what it's like for those who are in the same house with a WAS or MLC spouse. :-/
