What a great story Lexie! Nodaybut2day - yes, a list of things I won't miss (obsessively checking his bank/credit accounts, knowing when I look at my account balance there will be no surprises, not looking for betting slips in his car, not worrying if today will be the day he gets fired, wondering if he's really working late or at a bar, on and on). I love lists and notebooks - that will be a great help.
OMG! I just watched George Carlin's skit on Stuff - Sylvie I was LMAO!! SO true! My parents are hardcore...they keep telling me "just get rid of everything, you can buy what you need when you get here". I keep saying "but it's my stuff!! There's stuff I can't get rid of!!" Ahhh, too funny! A few weeks ago I was thinking about how long it'd been since I truly laughed and genuinely smiled. I think you all might understand? So bring on the irreverence and off-colour humor, it's good food for the soul!
