Divorce is beautiful when handled currently. Did you ever hear about Harriet Tubman freeing the slaves via the Underground Railroad? Same thing. You are being emancipated out of slavery and it will be confusing at first but it is all for the best in the long-term. All you have to do is conduct yourself with dignity and decide what you really want and works towards that. It may take several years but it is better than the alternative. ---

Sorry to hear it but i’m sure you’ll come out the other side. PNW has its plus sides but sun year round isn’t one of them. Best of luck and I’d be happy if you come out to these parts. ---
