Like everything, having the kids in two different houses will get better in time. The first five days of no kids will likely be the worst; as will be the first Christmas, birthday, etc. You’ll get through it.
Yes, concentrating could at times be difficult. Thoughts and emotions will rise and stir. I found scheduling a few times, like coffee breaks and lunch, to go for a little walk and think about things was better than trying to ignore it all for the entire day. Like letting off some pressure every now and then before it all blows up.
Do you have a custody schedule figured out? I see the first ten days, which is not a repeatable multiple of 7 or 14. Also curious as to planned drop off and pick up plan. Where and who. Each going to the other’s house to drop off? Or some other arrangement?
It sounds like your negotiations were rather amicable. One of my coworkers had a horrible situation and children drop off and pick up ended up being at the police station.
Be strong man. Thinking about you.

Feelings are fleeting. Be better, not bitter. Love the person, forgive the sin.
