moving on

[Ahoy]

Hello -- I can't remember how to link to my previous posts, but it may be unnecessary because I have really turned a corner. After visiting family out of state for Thanksgiving, and visiting friends and family in another state recently, I have gained a new perspective on my life, and what I want, and the person that my H has become. I am ready to move on with my life and am really excited to do so. I met with a lawyer and spoke to H about moving forward with the dissolution as soon as possible -- and addressed the fact that I'll be moving (preferably with D14) to my home state where I have a job and family support. So far so good. He seems to understand. I'm hoping to keep it amicable, and I wish him well, as my daughter's father. But I am also really, really happy to release him, and, in the process, release myself. For the first time in six months, I feel like myself again. I have direction and purpose, and I'm addressing my financial, physical, and emotional needs -- because no one else will, right? I'll be waiting out the school year to get daughter through school, but then moving on. Best of luck to all of you in your respective journeys, and thank you for all the support you've given. I wish you all peace and happiness.
