Karma, babe, I'm your age and I moved states and embarked on an entirely new career (that I can't say I love, but hey, it's new and it's a job and I'm making money and like Edison when he invented the lightbulb, I've found One More Thing I do NOT want to do for a living!).

You sound like you're totally ready to wipe the dust from this marriage off your feet and go on to the next good thing.

And you know what I found? That there are women out there just like us running businesses and hiring people like us. That is, if you don't get a brilliant idea to start your own business. My boss and her second-in-command are both (older) survivors of abusive marriages. They hire folks like us because -- well, we've been through the wringer and we don't sweat the small stuff and we don't create unnecessary drama...

YOU are going to be JUST FINE. Wheeeeeeee!
