Finally Did It!
I'm finally leaving. God willing, it will be this week.
I will be renting off an elderly gentleman who is recovering from open-heart surgery and he needs someone to cook, clean, and shovel snow. He knows that I am having a health problem right now, but I didn't tell him it is cancer.
He said that while he is recovering, he won't charge me rent. I pray that this will work out as I feel that it is where God wants me to be.
I told my alcoholic boyfriend and he was very quiet; non-responsive. It was kind of weird, since I thought he would be relieved. Afterall, he has told me to get out of here twice. He didn't seem happy or relieved. He didn't say anything. His only comment was, "Who are you moving in with?" He actually thought I was seeing someone else.
I have to admit that I am a little uneasy about his reaction. He almost acts like he is shocked. I just want to be out of here before the weekend when he has a chance to get drunk. Then I know that his true emotions will come out and they may not be pleasant.
Wish me luck on my move, everyone. This is truly an answer to my prayers!
I will be in touch.

Good to hear and how are you doing other wise?
There are many praying for you. Keep us informed.
As to his reaction...Yes shock may be what has his lips quiet.
denial...she will never leave. Hits like a ton of bricks and a few days later the reality of it all sets in. He will be angry with himself maybe and that could be just what he needs at the moment. Self truth to wake him up.
Think you have a good idea on the move before the weekend as well.

That's wonderful news, Grace. I am so happy for you - you deserve this.
Love Minnie
(a little word of caution: As generally don't like it when we do things for ourselves and they lose their caretakers. I had to fend off some serious efforts to manipulate me back into the relationship. Not an easy time.)

Grace -
Good for you! I think that you are right about getting out of there as soon as possible. Gives him less time to react and work on you. I'd give him as much space as possible until you are out of there.
Take care and good luck to you.
Hugs, Jo
