I say "was" because I believe I am currently there. I am realistic and expect to backslide. But for now, I am working on myself and my business. I interact and enjoy my teens without trying to control them. I limit my interaction with W and try to keep it pleasant and light. I hint at some business accomplishments without going into detail. Light and pleasant like a friendly neighbor. I can tell you the hardest part is letting go. Doing it is quite refreshing.
I will not comment on whether it is harder or easier with the W out of the house because I don't have that experience.
I expect I will make mistakes. I will need the help of the group to get back on track.
Hang in there. Trust God. Use this opportunity to focus on stuff you have pushed to the back burner because you were working on your M.

M 53 W 54, M since 98 D15, D19 8/2013 discovered EA, W maintained contact with OM until 10/14 7/2/17 W said she wanted S, 7/25/17 moved out of MBR 12/17 W says moving out 5/18, W still in home.
Did my morning routine. S has exams so took him to school. Went to the gym. went grocery shopping and did some more job searching. I have a interview on Friday. Not the best position but it still a job. Made dinner and ate with S. Got him set up for studying and then went on my bike ride. Early in the ride took a turn too sharp and blew the front tire and took a decent fall. elbow tucked into my ribs and now my ribs feel a bit tender. Luckily I keep a spare tube. Got home and cleaned up said prayers with S.
