Well, the weekend was not bad: I went out Friday night to see the Liberace (Michael Douglas - excellently acted) and his lover (Matt Damon) film, quite an eye opener to hear the arguments the two of them had, and then met two guy friends on Saturday evening for dinner/hanging out/playing music together. These are both (married) men that I respect a lot, one for taking no s**t from anyone, and the other for his spiritual balance, always knowing what to do, and general masculinity. After lots of wine, I was home at 2am.
W was not unpleasant, mostly staying indoors to prepare for work. She still doesn't actively start a conversation, is in her (now the guest) room most of the time, and still prefers to cook her own food (though I got to make half of dinner tonight). I keep the thought of not being her butler etc. in mind, and it seems we are co-living/working on common tasks.
On the plus side - a jar that is potentially good for making jam (which would mean staying here until the berries are in again) is in the dishwasher, though probably it is just going to be used to store paintbrushes during renovation before selling the house. I know not to put any weight at all on this, but it made me glad in a small way nonetheless.
I talk to both T and my DB coach tomorrow. The DB subject will be this co-stuff - it seems to be what W wants, and certainly makes less work for me. Any suggestions you have for what to discuss are welcome also.
