Well, today is the beginning of the end! I left him the letter when I went to work this morning. My daughter has been home from college and using my car. I didn't want to start it without having a car. She's going to her dad's today, so everything is in place. He reads my letter today (which doesn't blame him, just states all my reasons), tomorrow I meet with the paralegal to get the documents filed with the court. Next week he will be served.
My best friend from another state happens to be in town today, so I will be spending the afternoon with her before heading home to see what I have to deal with - a drunken fool or a begging husband. Either way, it's begun and will not be stopped. I'm both anxious and excited.
