H found him a little house over the weekend to rent. He's going to move in about 3 weeks. Right now he's living with his parents. I went with him and the kids to look at it yesterday. I wanted to see where my kids are going to be spending so much of their time. It's small, but very neat and clean. The rent is reasonable and it's in a very good area. It has a nice, big yard too for the kids and H's dog. H was so excited and happy about it, but it was like a knife in my heart, watching him moving on and making plans without me in them. I just have to move on. I am glad he found such a perfect place. I wouldn't want the kids to have to be holed up in a cramped apartment. One good thing too...the house is owned by our former landlords. We rented from them right before we built our house. They have always been very kind to us and were glad to rent to H even though they were sad to hear our news. But they make sure everything works. I hate it when people find out. I despise having to tell the story. I really try to keep it as generic as possible. Please tell me it gets easier with time!<P><P>------------------<BR>Blessed be.<BR>****************<BR>Keridwen<P>Keridwen_7@yahoo.com

Keridwen --<P>I'm not where you are . . . yet. My H still lives at the house, but he keeps making all of these plans. I do know how that feels. It hurts. But I'm also proud of him at the same time for being responsible and taking charge. The emotions are so mixed.<P>From what my friends tell me, it does get better with time. From limited personal experience, I think if you can get past it being personal (He's only doing this because of me, or us, or the problems, etc.) it will get easier faster. This is my humble opinion only.<P>Take it one day at a time, one step at a time and remember we're here for when it gets rough.

Keri,<P>I am sorry to hear he is moving. It will take time but you'll get thru this. We'll be here to help you. <P>Peace to you today, Dana<BR>
