Been 4 days into this new normal for us....

I have been journaling and noting actions especially.
He makes a lot of effort in reaching out to me to talk, or start conversation - which I appreciate - but looking for 'action' (unless that is considered action) - he thought it was.
He has scheduled MC for us, and is scheduling IC for himself.
We went on a Starbucks run and had a dinner out (with the 16 daughter because it just gets awkward with conversation and such... and a burger dinner on the patio last night with daughter.
He will not say I love you, just noting.
He has fully cleaned the kitchen on the nights I leave it.
He makes efforts to come find me when its late and knows its when I will turn in.
We plan to go for a walk/trails this weekend together.
He has stopped drinking.
He is sharing with a good friend of his, and getting advice....point is, he is talking, thats big for him.
He is going to connect to his brother shortly.
We are doing a week long fast together... his idea...no idea. I think he wants to have me stress to see if all these changes are for real. (mindreading)

By no means are things great. He is still distant. And I do give him a lot of space still. When I do speak with him, he offers a lot of advice (which I take as a good sign) I see it as a guys way to show caring.
