SOP. Petition for dissolution and immediately get a TRO (temp restraining order) that may or may not set out immediately the schedule for the interim, but after the first hearing you'll get a temporary order with some semblance of split residential time.

Basically, a divorce can get ugly. Have fun. If you can afford an attorney you really should go about doing that. If not, see if you can find a place that operates to provide advocates that will help you along the way.
