Well, Amoafwl, it's simple. This is my home and I will not be the one to leave. My things are here. Our cats are here. I will not let a raging a-hole drive me out.
Also, if I break this pattern now, there will be questions from well-meaning friends and relatives. I have had a hard enough time convincing my husband that he should tell no one. I'd rather not do something stupid and inadvertently air my dirty laundry out in public. In other words, I want there to be no questions from anyone.
That said, I am about to spend the next 14 hours or so M.I.A.
