When my wife moved out, after 15 years of living in the same house, I was surprised how much dust had built-up behind some of the furniture. There was a lot of clean-up to do. I had to go out and buy a carpet cleaner because some the build-up was so bad. Yuck!
If I had to do it over again, I'd insist that she clean-up behind any large furniture that she takes. Just a little tip for anyone that has a spouse that's moving-out.
Random thought here,
If the dust build up was over the course of the M, why would it be the responsibility of the WAW? Just because they took furniture, you saw the dust, but it was there all along.
The Keurig: you don't use it, you were making a point I see. My ex agreed I could keep everything except his stupid TV. I couldn't fit the couches up the stairs in my new place, so I offered them to him. I couldn't have a washer/dryer in my new place, so I gave them to him.
My point is, I was one p!ssed off woman who wanted nothing more than vengeance. But I felt it pointless over those things. I realize in retrospect, those things would hurt my chances of reconciliation. I fought my battles where they were really truly important to me.
I completely get it. But it does get exhausting, the arguments over the little things. Just some food for thought.
It IS exhausting lol. But in the end, she finally understood the point I was making and I think it was a win for me. I let her have it. Because, really, I didn't want it. Reconcilliation is my end game here.
