I'm so sorry that you are hurting so much right now. And I'm so appreciative that you took the time to post on my thread. I read back a few pages on this thread, and found lots of great advice from labug. Man, she asks tough questions!
This is a good time of year to sit back and reflect, and set goals-- but maybe not to act on anything just yet. Because it's also a really emotional time of year-- for everyone.
