I've got to respond to missmyfriend's question, hope it helps.
Early in this crisis, after moving to a place of my own which is very quiet when the kids are not with me, I believe I was able to "hear" answers to my prayers. This is what I heard: "Have patience"
"This had to happen"
"Do what Jesus expects of you"
I also heard a specific answer to my prayer, "what should I do"? The answer........
"Do nothing"
The last is the one I have struggled with the most.
As far as the house goes I understand where you're coming from. If you can keep it and provide as much stability for your children as possible, I say go for it. They need as much stability as we can provide right now, your W's feelings are secondary by comparison.
Drew, thank you for this.
I was mostly taking a break from the boards, but I read this when you wrote it, and it had a big impact on me.
Especially,
"Do nothing"
Thanks again.
These are my friends now!
But someday baby... You ain't worry my life anymore
Take away, take away what I don't need, save the good part please. Fade away, fade away.
