7 1/2 years later...I'm trying

[mvg]

@dejavu. thank you so much. I'm really trying to hang in, but the last 6 months have been very hard and I've noticed a palpable change in my attitude and what I'm able to handle. It feels like the dreaded Mile 20 in a marathon. I agree, my kids aren't going to need me the way they do today, but like I said, this to me is more about the lack of emotional support / partnership in being a single parent. Logistics can usually be solved with a carpool here and there, but the daily loneliness and stress is starting to really get to me in ways it hasn't before.
