So the wife (X2B) is giving me a permanent hall pass (Big D). We separated a few weeks back. IT's pretty amicable overall. So I rented a U-Haul so she could get all her stuff moved to our er I mean her place in MS. She would drive it over and I would come over next day in her car to retrieve said U-Haul and my stuff from MS. She promised to have it loaded and ready when I got there. Guess what? So what little I had there isn't loaded and ready. The deer stand is still on the tree 1/4 behind the house. She says you'll have to go get it. All I planned to do Sun was drive so I'm wearing shorts and sandals. Go get it yeah, right. I told she should have told me ahead of time and I could have been prepared. Told her NOT politely that she could keep it. (Insert 4 letter words of your choice here). So I load my chit and head back to AR - 5 hrs.
Get home bout 8:30, go in the house and crap it's warm in here. You guessed it.... The AC crapped out, on a weekend, in AR, in Aug. (Insert more 4 letter words of your choice here).

Only upside to the day was on the way over I swung by MSU and took my daughter, her roommate and a friend out to lunch.

Sorry Mag,

We let them in, and hope for the best. Sometimes it dont work.

I hope it stays civil enough to come to a complete end.

Advice: any guns you have, have them go stay with a good friend until this is over, so if there is police involved for any reason in the process, you can say, nope,, no guns here,so they cant take them because shes on the payback tour..

So, you lost a treestand and an A/C unit? Damn, that sucks. Yep, that's far worse that a friend who was killed on her way to work about 10 days before her wedding, and definitely worse than the weekend her fiance' and family had.

I do hope you survive the ordeal.

We've already been thru the gun thing. She get's hers, her dad's and I get mine and my family's. Course there ain't squat in the kitchen to cook with anymore. Took the good stuff and left me the crap as I expected. I got a dining room table; my grandmother's but no chairs; she bought them. Heck I noticed this morning she even took the POS kitchen clock. Just kinda chuckled to myself and went to work. Kitchen is pretty empty, took baking center and both sets of shelves plus the cabinet over the baking center. She did do me a small favor though. When she got her stuff our of our bathroom she gave it a thorough cleaning.

Sure is quiet now with her and her cat gone and daughter gone to college. Just me and the daughter's invisible cat. Think I'm gonna be a hunting and kayaking SOB this fall. In some ways I'm kinda relieved. Guess I didn't realize how tuff things had gotten between us.

I'd have suspected most women couldn't handle a 4x4 deer blind in a tree in the back 40....

Best of luck, hope it all turns out ok.

The AC part sucks.

Its why we put a window unit in one bedroom window permanently.. runs off the wall receptacle OR the generator in the yard depending on the issue.

I don't know either one of you but from my perspective you made out like a bandit. I know some of you have wives that you love dearly and I'm happy for all of you but I've never been in that position. I'd rather go through an IRS audit every day than live with another woman.

Sorry to hear this. 'Can't imagine too many of these splits go real smooth. As for re-equipping the kitchen hit a few garage sales, pick up some odds and ends, and then get the good stuff as time permits.

Her cousins (men) were supposed to come bring it in for her. Knowing her family I'm not surprised. With a couple of exceptions they are what typifies the northern perception of people from MS. And yeah, she was one of the exceptions. That bunch stays in a constant state of bliss (ignorance) and they personify fat, dumb and happy. I was shocked the first time I met the rest of her family. Thought maybe she was adopted or something. The men all marry CRAZY (crazier than normal) women and the women all marry LOSERS. As in they can get a good job they just won't keep a good job. Because it got in the way of something else they wanted to do. So the women end up supporting them. Not gonna miss that aspect of married life at all.

She got to keep the MS place free and clear. It was hers when we got married so I made no claim against it. I got to keep all my 401K. I will have to pay some 'spousal support' since she hadn't worked anything more than part time in over a year. That amount has yet to be determined. If all goes as we discussed it won't be too bad though.

We had some financial issues (on my end) but I always fixed them. We also had some communication issues (mostly on her end) that I couldn't fix. Apparently I was supposed to think like she did. Well we all know that no straight man is ever gonna be able to think like a woman. The old "if I ask you if something is wrong and you say nothing expect me to act like nothing is wrong". Basically we still love (just not "in love" anymore) each other we just couldn't live together anymore. All in all I can't complain. She was a good wife for most of the almost 13 years we had. In fact she was a better mother to my daughter than her own mother ever was. She is making my daughter her heir if that tells you anything.
