Hi there all,
Wanted to give you an update and also some more information as far as where I am living and ect... the children are ok. Daughter started alternative school today because our county had been closed due to the flooding in Tennessee. Also, I was able to get a reprieve for my son due to the circumstances and him standing up for his sister and feeling he has to be the male role.
As far as my living arrangements, On Jan 18th I closed on a new home that we had purchased with my folks in order to take care of them as they get older and as well as my 93yr old grandmother. It has now turned around to where my parent's are having to help me and the kids and I assist with my grandmother when I have time. My father and mother had both planned on retiring after we bought the house and travel so they would not be there very often, father retired from airlines so they have free flight benefits.
This was the dream home for all of us a 3 story log cabin, 7 bed 5 bath and we have a creek with rapids running along the back of the 3 1/2 acres, it is beautiful. There are two separate living rooms and kitchens in which my parent's were going to be downstairs but since my H left I gave them the master suite upstairs and took the bedroom and bath down in the rec room which essentially is another suite in itself.
None of us would have been able to afford this house without all of us pitching in but we wanted it for the kids. Well now my parent's are both still working, I have had to cut back at work to 3 days in which, I am very lucky to even be able to keep my job since I have really not been with it since he left.
We do attend a local church and they have been wonderful, the emotional and financial aspect is what is hitting me the most but if I didn't have my parent's and the church and my co-workers i would never be able to do this and of course more importantly you all......thank you for your prayers..
