friendsI'm trying to catch up with everyone's entries from this weekend. I was internet-less from Friday morning through yesterday afternoon. I moved into my apartment on Friday. So, other than a few odds and ends that I still need to move over, I'm done with the house.
I wasn't sure how I'd feel about it, but I think it's the best move I could have made. I talked to six24 Friday evening after the moving was done and he said I sounded more excited than I have since this all started. My dad said the same thing when I talked to him Saturday night. He thought I sounded really good. Personally, I don't notice the difference when I'm talking to people, but I know I feel better. It's nice to know that there aren't any pictures of her sitting around, and there are no memories that include her in this place. I think there were times this weekend when I forgot all about her, and it's a great feeling when I realize I've been able to do that for awhile.
This situation sucks, but I am a lucky man. I have one of the greatest groups of friends anyone could ever hope for. Eight people came to help me move, another one or two would have if they didn't have to work. Most of these are people who are also friends with my wife, and the amount of support they're showing for me is really overwhelming.
The separation agreement has been completed. I reviewed it again on Sunday and gave my attorney the OK to send it out to my wife yesterday. She should be getting it this week. In my last meeting with the attorney, we decided to put a statement in the agreement attempting to get half of the down payment on the house back. It will be interesting to see what my wife has to say about that. I think it's more than fair, but we'll see.
So, other than that stuff, my weekend was mainly spent organizing the apartment, unpacking boxes. Played some pool and drank some beers at my friends' place Friday night, tried Indian food for the first time on Saturday. A good weekend, really. A starting point.
