I saw my counselor yesterday, and talked to him about my own anxiety regarding my choices and the prospect of leaving. I won't repeat the entire hour, but he basically told me that I do not have to set a date in stone (have been doing this because of my financial situation), however I can set a date to make the actual decision. I should continue my baby steps toward the goals that I make and then make my actual choice on that decision date. If I choose to stay, either permanently (not likely) or temporarily, I still have made the steps. It may make the actual decision easier. Even if I stay put for a while, I have only done things that will make me stronger.
I did have a pleasant day looking at rental houses with my friend. No, I am not moving him in with me, however, he pointed out aspects of the different properties that I should consider when I do make my move. Tile....neighbors....access....room sizes....shade trees (Arizona, you know) and more.
Hope everyone has a peaceful Easter!!
