My husband of nearly 25 years ( when he left )has had 7 affairs and is now living with his mistress once the divorce is finalised he will be remarrying. Right now I am blessed by God to be able to stay in the family home , bu I know this will end sometime soon. <br />In a way I dread it it another it will bring closure to a painful time in my life and enable me to restart <br />Than you would love to chat moreTracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17104766436816377485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646599654892446019.post-18897057919281971032011-03-20T16:59:14.771+01:002011-03-20T16:59:14.771+01:00Good work Anna!

Thanks for sharing your own life experie...Dear Ann,<br />Thanks for sharing your own life experience. It is comforting to know that I am not alone starting a new kind of life. Yes, this text is a mix of fact and fiction. The divorce part is true, as well as the moving part, but I have not yet moved. I probably will have to take a break from blogging for several weeks when that happens. The smaller apartment? Yes, I have looked at it, but it is not final yet. Wherever we do end up living, it will be simpler and less luxurious than our present home. There is an apartment that fits the description in this story about Sanna. We may move to that apartment. Everything else is too expensive. At this exact moment, I still reside in a home with hardwood floors and chandeliers and am imagining that I will miss it when we do move. But I will move, because there is a price for staying that I am not willing to pay.<br /><br />Hi jfb57!<br />Thank you for noticing this. I have my moments when I could start to get a little bitter about certain details, but I realise that becoming bitter would only get in the way of doing something constructive. I have two wonderful children growing up before my eyes; I have unfinished projects to do; books to read; books to write; paintings to paint! Now if I could just get my budget balanced...<br /><br />Hi Kolby,<br />Thank you for your kind words too. My character, Sanna Rumsten, is going to make it. And if she can do it, maybe I will do alright too!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17926688000745346961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646599654892446019.post-76940860238266133752011-03-20T13:34:28.679+01:002011-03-20T13:34:28.679+01:00I agree, it could have been sad, but you didn'...I agree, it could have been sad, but you didn't let it...great job!!!Kobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08877555515059302696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646599654892446019.post-64663210539955612002011-03-20T12:21:09.739+01:002011-03-20T12:21:09.739+01:00This could have been really sad but uplifted at th...This could have been really sad but uplifted at the end!
