IRT house cleaning say "Thanks, the place looks great".
IRT decorating "You have nice taste " or "Beautiful" with a smild.
Big picture you need to move into your house full time. It sounds pathetic to even write it like that, but dude....she cheats and you move out? WTF? She has been and is cheating, make the truth your shield, don't run from it. You need some strong Male support.
Quit reminding her of the appointment and quit going. She doesn't want to work on the marriage, don't you see that?
Your story is like so many here. You need to start reading other's situations and learning quickly.

I till have here last name which sometimes feels really weird. I wanted to switch, but now...
What does this mean?
Don't worry about telling the kids anything together. Be a strong father and tell them mom and dad are having a tough time if they ask.
If her cheating is a deal breaker then file for divorce, I assume it's not since you haven't filed. I can tell you aren't ready to file. Start to heal, learn, grow.

It is not things that bother us, but the stories we tell ourselves about things.
