Life Changing Events, Part II

Well, to say things are awkward is an understatement. My home is not large enough for us to coexist without having to be around each other. I try to find reasons to not be home. Since I'm not in a band any more, that really only leaves work and who wants to stay at work longer than they have to? I should reconnect with some of my friends and get back to some of the other hobbies I once had. It's time to be "alive" again.



We've had a few bad days where tempers have flared; me probably more so than her. I've been sleeping on an air mattress for several months now and that's making me a bit irritable. Two weeks ago, I lost it and went to a hotel. I just needed to be alone. It helped a lot but I don't like showing my ass; I'm not a jerk and I just want to close this chapter and move on. I feel like a stagnant pool of algae covered water right now.

She agreed to not fight it; the biggest issue is dividing up our assets and liabilities. She is going on vacation tomorrow. She asked me to not schedule any lawyer/mediator/financial planning appointments until after she returns; I agreed.

I just don't want this to be any more difficult than it already is. That cannot be helped but it's not like I've done this before.

Thank you to the people who have helped me in this trying time; you know who you are. More to follow.
