Here we are

[Maybell]

Very nice update, Claire! Having been through it, I have to say -- leaving the home and moving in to my own has been much more of a blessing than I expected. There are no icky associations here. No memories of the things he said "we" would do to make it "ours." This place is all mine and the kids', and I am free to be clear and open with them about the order in which we'll get things done. So even if you do end up moving, consider that once you get past that stress, which is only for a limited period, you will be even freer than you are now.

I'd say you are a success story!
