I'm going out tonight...
Since my AH left, my life has to go on. I am going to BINGO. I know it's stupid but I like to go. I haven't been in soooo long because I always wanted to be home to watch him in front of the kids. I'm kind of excited. I know my kids will be okay. Dinner is in the oven and they can turn it off. I'm leaving in a few minutes. Something for myself. It's strange. I'm not sitting here wallowing and I really don't feel like cleaning anymore.

15 is old enough to be left for an evening, I understand your concerns, but you are not running off to las vegas for 2 weeks, you are going out for 1 evening for the first time in years......
....enjoy yourself honey, they might relish a little alone-time too, when they don't have to worry about you.

to you for going out and not staying home, miserable.Leaving them at 15 is fine for a few hours, and yeah...they will appreciate it as a sign of your trust in them.
Hope you enjoy every minute and come home with full pockets.
God bless

Thank you all for your responses.
It felt very good to get out. Felt weird but I need to do things for myself. I didn't win but that's okay. I had some laughs.
Figures though that my AH decided to text me while I was concerned because my dd did not text him back. But that was okay. Did not bring me down at all.
and actually, I'm going to bingo again next Friday night. It's what I should have been doing all along. I need that time. My daughter was sleeping when I left and my son was going out with his friends. So why should I be home miserable.
I had a good time and I'm looking forward to next week. Just because he left me and I'm worried about him, blah, blah, blah doesn't mean my life has to come to an end even more. I think this is the beginning of my new life even if he does seek treatment and comes home (I doubt it but I'm still in that maybe he'll sober up thought process) and if he doesn't.
My life goes on. with or without him. It's still hard but I do feel better.
