It DOES feel good to not need him, well financially I do, but mentally I don't. I still want it to magically work out. But not now. We both have so much growing to do.
I met with my new friend today, the one who is also getting divorced. She told me to bring my computer and she installed Excel on it and gave me her budget template. Budgeting is one of those things I repeatedly put off, but now that I know how to keep track I'm almost excited. Almost, haha.
