Hi all. Not sure why I am back, but I thought I would drop in. The divorce is set for 1/28. We finally accepted an offer on the house. We're going to lose our life savings in the sale ($125,000 less than we bought the house for 3 years ago).
I've quit drinking for a while. I don't know that it was a huge barrier for me, but in the divorce process I was starting to be uncomfortable with how much I was leaning on the bottle. So I plan to give it up at least until the divorce is final. New Years Eve is going to be a movie. It does mean I can do the New Years 5k the morning with no hangover. Maybe I will win it on the basis of an (unfair) advantage.
Holidays are just tough. My best wishes for all of you fighting through difficult times around the holidays. Keep your head high.
