Vapo...I know that there are many things that are on my Bucket List that I want to do...I played golf with friends yesterday for the first time in a long time. But you are right that this is new to me, even if she has been thinking about it for a long time. I have tried to keep the strong face on at home and when I have been around my W and kids, but once I get alone for a while the reality kicks in and it becomes difficult.

My oldest is in college and lives a couple of hours away. I hope to see him this coming weekend.

The spreadsheet is more of a personal schedule to keep my time occupied from 5am-11pm everyday. I am going to add in some activities for myself to do on the W's week to have the kids and then some family activities for me and the kids to do when they are with me.

My youngest just knows that we are going to have 2 houses now...not sure how much a 10yo can comprehend about the D situation anyway, but my daughter knows that this is something that mom wants...not dads idea. As hard as it sounds I'm almost more worried about telling my oldest than any of them. He will not take it well for sure.

For now we are settling on 50/50 custody with no primary...all decisions are to be made together.

I guess my biggest issue is having to stay in the house the first time by myself...even though I will have our small zoo of pets to keep me company.
