Thanks, Wonka. I am trying to look at the "bright" side, if you can call it that, of H having to live without his family. Right now he comes home and his kids have been picked up from school, assisted with their homework, shuttled to and from other activities, his dinner is ready, his laundry is clean, his house is clean, and everyone is thrilled to see dad. Let's see if OW can match up to that, maybe she can, maybe she can't. And I do believe your advice is right on about the holidays, I'm not going to commit to anything right now. I may or may not be ready to play happy family him come Thanksgiving. I have said all along that his moving out and forcing us to tell the kids is a major hurdle for me, and I just don't know how I'll actually feel when that happens.
