Thanks for the words of encouragement! Today is day 4 of going dark/no contact. Started out a little rough; Mortgage company said I can't currently refinance due to debt-income ratio. Unfortunately, I took on most of the debt in the relationship, so will have some digging out to do. I'm determined to stay the course, though. It'll be tight for a while, but I know my kids will appreciate the hard work in the long run.
