Thank you for your kind words and for keeping me in your prayers. I especially liked your phrase, "It is too much, too many, I am too little." How adorable that your son said that, and how strange how it parallels the mess in my life.
I realize that making my decisions based on what others might or might not think is ridiculous. It would cause a short buzz, but they would soon have other drama to mull over. And I don't put myself THAT highly on most people's lists that they would lose any sleep over it.
I guess I am most concerned with how I would feel afterwards. And I DO feel so little right now, and very lost, much like a little kid. I definitely know the mess needs cleaning, but it is such a mountain of a mess, that I truly do not know where to begin.
My heart is glad for how you stood up to your husband. Did the Old Cockhound ever get remarried? Do you keep in contact to this day?
