And I haven't had a moment to think. Cleaning my sisters new place, helping her move, art classes, family...the days are flying by that's for sure. Long distance marriage is getting interesting. Hubby wants to file for bankruptcy and I am opposed to that. I know that he has ran his credit card bills up too high and that it wasn't his fault he was laid off. But I do not want to risk losing this house or the small inheritance from mom, so I will meet with his bankruptcy attorney next week and plan to include divorce in that discussion.
Once that's done I will talk to a divorce attorney. One step at a time. In the meantime, I'm moving forward with some much needed dental work, new glasses, etc., and I want to take care of it before hubby gets home.
Thanks to those who wrote such nice words after my last post. It really helps to know you know what I've been through. While I have a hope that hubby and I will work it out, I've decided to make sure I cover all bases.
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I went to my brothers and had a perfect day.

Truly considering a divorce
No, I won't make that choice yet, but I may tell him I'm ready.
Twice now, he has wanted me to do something that I didn't want to do (financial stuff) and each time he has said, "if you don't want to do this with me, what is the point of staying married?" I realize that he is simply saying this to manipulate me. And I'm about ready to tell him that there is no point to staying married.
I've been on my own for 2 months now. Missing him less and less. Feeling more and more like suggesting he stay with his dad and we do a trial separation, or a legal separation. Maybe I'm just in a bad mood tonight because he called today, wanting something else. When he started in with the "you just don't love me ..." I told him to stop and hung up on him.
But I have to confess that he did not sound right and I should have known that the minute he started talking he was not well. Sugar off? He hasn't done labs since June. As of tonight, he can stay where he for another 6 months! LOL!!!
Maybe I had forgotten how it is to live without diabetes and maybe I like this.
I'm sure time will tell. I'm not sure I have the strength to go through a divorce. But I may at least talk to a lawyer. Mom once said that when she died all of her kids would fall apart. Maybe this is me falling apart.
