I'm free!!

At last! Yippee!

My ex has been hounding me for months about us getting back together, plaguing me with phone calls and e-mails and texts. It is difficult because we run a business together, but I have put all my recovery tools into action to remain professional and not succumb to his manipulation.

Today, he went on holiday. And next Saturday, I am moving back to my home town. So, I don't need to put up with daily pressure and all I need to do is turn my phone off. My friends and family will be around me and I get to meet a whole new lot of Al-anon people.

Life is good.

Thanks for being here.

Love

Minnie

It's difficult to put into words the happiness I feel for you. You're going to do what so many of us wish we could do.

Congratulations!!!

Thank you everyone - you do realise that you all had a hand in this, don't you? (lol)

I'll still be hanging around, although not as much for a while after Saturday. I don't get broadband till the middle of May - how will I cope?!

To everyone contemplating the same thing - you'll know when you're ready. And you will get loads of support from all the truly wonderful people here on SR.

Love

Minnie

I will certainly miss your posts while waiting for your internet service to
be installed. You have so much to look forward to...be happy, you deserve it!
Love, Patty
