CTH, good attitude towards finances. One that I adopted fairly successfully a few months back and it has relieved much, though not all, of the fear (and panic).

X walking away and leaving me straddled with this house has sunk me into a depth of debt I've never experienced before. When the house sells, my half of proceeds will get me out of that. Then, like you, "I'm on a new path and I'll just have to build from there."

Endure.

With fruit, with weeds even; but gather them
In the one garden you may call your own."
