This is terrifying - I hope you understand

Thanks, Nitty. Getting a scum skimmer for my pool. There's a lot of dreck in there. (But I'm leaving in the SNL drop you linked!)

Wife interrupted me while I was in prayer to tell me she was picking up the kids. There I was, taking your advice, as it were. She didn't realize what I was doing at first, and was apologetic after getting my attention. She asked if I was OK, I said "I will be." And I meant it. At least that didn't cause a conflict.

Working from home today to avoid looking like a hot mess at work. It's been peaceful, and the mid-day trip to the IC didn't hurt. W's still at home job-hunting (She's a LVN/LPN, so she'll find something) and monitoring the home-schooling of my SS15.

She still leans on me for so much...it's going to be a shock when I am not continually available. I'll do anything for my kids, but I know there will be abrasive moments when I say "No."

I have decided to let her stay as long as necessary to get a job and her feet under her, but I will cut her off from everything financial once the order is entered. She wants to leave, like yesterday, so she won't linger. I am 85% sure that I will not be helping her to move, except to get the children out from under foot.
