[QUOTE="so ready to live, post: 698268, member: 20054"] Hi Colleen. I think you... sound good and strong and healthily detaching and working at finding yourself and, and, and.... Be happy about this change, a new stage of life certainly, but a good one. It's great that your husband helped with the move, it is "touching base" without you becoming enmeshed again. My husband "takes the contact hit" many times for me. Our son also has no phone for the last few months. It's actually a relief in that there is no begging for $ at this point. He does share a "freebie government" phone with ex girlfriend. If we text to it he/they text back-especially since our text is "mom is sending dinner tonight" type message. My intent is to do this once a month on the week before his rent is due when I know he must be really strapped. It helps me feel that he knows I really love him. Does he feel that? I'm not sure but at least I've made that effort and he can't pawn a casserole or his favorite apple pie! So-that being said-I feel you are making much progress. Feel good about where you are. Today, give to your students. Make a difference there. Prayers. [/QUOTE]
