I'm not sure i really care what she takes, other than i don't want to deal with buying new stuff. Do I just let her take whatever she wants? Or, do I use this as an opportunity to talk through things with her and show her that I'm a reasonable person who she can talk to?
I know this may go against your line of thinking, but I'd be careful on saying she can take whatever, as she may clean you out. You can talk to her about it, but don't expect anything. If it were me, I'd go through the house and make a note of what you want to keep - meaning, what you WANT and are willing to fight for...because it will come down to that. Ask me how I know...

If you do it right, it may help. She may come out thinking she got what she wanted or whatever...which may make relations a little better, but I doubt it.
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.
