The W asked me last night if it was hard being in the same house together right now as we get ready for apartment life. To me, I answered no and she said "it can be". I see guilt running through her strongly.
She was talking to me about our schedule with the kids over the next month as we start our separated shared custody (no papers just doing) and she totally looked like she was losing it. I'm not just talking upset/crying, but she looked like she was so out of control she didn't know what's up and what's down. I simply remained calm, stern and collected in the discussion.
Talked about Easter plans and needing to bring a dessert over to my MIL on Sunday and I told her me and the kids would do something (she has to work today and half day tomorrow and I'm off). She says very snarky, "well aren't you parent of the year?" and I called her on it.
Its a little surreal at times with how alike this is to our last go round 4 years ago. She's hit the "eject" button and is so focused on the move out because she can control it. The dust will settle at some point in the apartment life and we'll see what fork in the road this thing goes. I'm not holding onto hope for us and our M and know that my improvements are for me and my kids.
