Make the best of the time with the kids that you have. Play silly with them. Do whatever they want, even if it is like 50 times in a row. That is the stuff they will remember. You got this!!

I don't know her motives, and I am not sure I ever will. She is so far different now. It saddens me. But she is playing victim for now. I am the root of all her pain. She doesn't respect me, but wants to be friends. Wants to go through with D, and then wants to call and text, etc. Told me that I don't need a L, then told me that if I don't agree to her proposal that I will have to sell off everything and we can split the money. The guns I have, mostly were my dads and grandpas. She is hitting below the belt with that. And said it in a cheery voice. Who is this woman?
It seems like we are hearing the same thing. My W is also far, far different. Playing the poor victim. Tells her family all this stuff that I supposedly did. Twisted our history so much that she thoroughly believes it. However, mine is very easily manipulated by the b*tch of a sister who is also going through a divorce, but started like 6 months earlier. Most damning message I saw between the two was what the W sent her sister - "I never knew I was so sad." Let that sink in for a minute...
Mine, although not saying she wants to go through with the D, is giving every indication that is exactly where she wants to go through little comments. Like when talking about the MBR, she calls is "your room," or tells me that her upcoming move to the new base will give me a chance to get used to not having her around. Yet, at the same time like yours she wants to call and text. Wants to be friends. I am doing my best at holding in some very, very bad words... haha.
About the guns, do you have a trusted relative that you can "give" them to? That way, they won't be in the house and not part of the settlement - and get them back when all is said and done? Something to think about.
There are moments in this life when you are so confident in the rightness of your actions, that not even for a second do you consider the option that you might be wrong.
