[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 550198"] Sig, you wrote that beautifully and I agree with everything you said! This board has been such a lifesaver for me, just knowing there are others out there that really get what I have and am going through has been a huge source of support for me. And I realized today that I really am getting to a different place. I came back from my trip and started having some thoughts about my job, like maybe I want to do something differently.... and I realize that my easy child is going off to college next year and we will have an empty nest... and that I need to think about getting involved in more things that I love and want to do. And what I realized tonight is that as I am finally letting go I need some other things to focus and think about other than my difficult child!! One of the things that was so great about my trip this summer is that I did not focus on difficult child... I focused on other interesting things and it was so so good for me. I need to make space in my head for other areas of interests in my life. Not sure what those will be..... but I think I am entering a new chapter.... and yes I will still keep reading here!!!
