Hanging and hoping- seperation edition

[Bman72]

I know the discussion will have to take place between now and when she moves out - at this stage I have just listened to her plans and what she wants and because she has given me so much notice of her plan to leave I am letting it settle for now. If my wife tells me that she has no intention of living kooky back then she has to make her own future - of course that can just be how she feels for now but she has to see the full reality of leaving the family unit.
Family holidays are hard esp when you are still very much in love and attracted to them - detaching is hard ! I want to use every opportunity to spend time together and the kids deserve this but it does come at a price to you. Esp over this time of year - it is surreal being on holiday thinking that this could be our last holiday as a family ever.
