Finally approaching the starting line!

[hopefulinga]

You described how I feel that I have been progressing, especially

as long as I am more than casually emotiionally invested in my w actions, I will have a hard time focusing on myself and my children.

I've found that the more I stop worrying about what H is up to, the easier it is for me to do things for me and our D. It also makes it easier to roll my eyes at his crap.

I think getting your heart open again for business, even if you aren't ready to move on, is the end of the journey.
