I, for one, am excited for you. The painful part is all that leading up to the decision. Once made, it should get easier. The words about losing all feeling, anger, hurt, resentment, etc, really struck a chord with me. I'm there now, waiting for something (or someone) to give me just a little nudge. I was almost there last week, but fell back to the safe, familiar, (unhappy) boring routine I now call my life. You have decided, and I am so happy for you. Again CD
