Haha Casey at the subletting idea. Let me know if it works....

My W is in the same situation...no real income to speak of. She got her mom to apply for an apt with her. How she pays for it, I dont know, and do not really care. I was clear I was not. I have been keeping up paying the credit cards which are in her name which saves her a bit. Your W prob is sticking around because of money. Everything else in her actions says she wants to be away from you. Being apart or separated can be beneficial to your sanity as well as your chances at reconciling. For me I simply HAD to get myself out of the situation we were in where we shared a house but I knew she was going off with OM. I was her babysitter cutting my own work day short so she could go play.

As much as it may stink, use the time with your kids as a positive. Spending time with them may be one of the few joys you really will have at this point in your life. Do not take them for granted.

One solution for your apartment situation is asking the leasing office to let you downsize. Lets say you have a 3 bedroom now, downsize to a 2 bedroom. Saves you money, AND makes the separation easier to force.

At any rate, keep posting and I will be sure to follow...
