Okay -- sorry for my post above. I need to remover to stay away from drinking when I am sad.

Today, I will focus on my blessings:

1. I have a great job (better than my H's) and my managers are very supportive of me and are allowing me to take breaks as I need. I have had the same job for 16 years -- where he has always bounced around.

2. I am still living in my home and my H does not want it. He now hates the area. We live outside a large city and he has moved into the city.

3. I have a loving D that just got straight A's on her progress report -- even though her life was turned upside down last month.

4. My H just gave me his bonus and almost all my credit card debt has been paid off. I also ordered new cards that no longer have him as an authorized user.

5. I have a very supportive network of friends and family. Although I am afraid they will get tired of me rehashing the same stuff over and over again.

6. I have found a wonderful IC who is amazing and a great support group that meets every Wednesday.

7. My household chores are now 1/2 what they used to be -- and I no longer worry that my H will decide to just go and blow $500 without telling me (my paycheck is now going into my own account).

8. I have lost almost 25lbs since he told me. About 20 more and I will be at the weight I was when we married, when I was 25.

I will think of more later! I hope each and everyone of your have a great day!
