(((((Julia))))) I'm glad Maple will be well taken care of! It will be nice to not have to be worried about her.
I know you don't want to be divorced, but look at it from the other angle.... do you want to be married to him? As he is now, and has been for years? I think your year abroad will give you a good chance to start fresh when you get back home. Back at the top of your game, confident, and ready to take on the world!
