My HP is telling me that tomorrow is the the day to ask my husband, my A, to leave the house.
I have packed things that I might need in case I have to leave immediately. My kids have done the same. I have some money, cell phone and important numbers. I have hidden any weapons that I know of and am praying for him to retreat quietly. If he doesn't I think I am as prepared as possible.
Right now I am running on pure adrenaline. I am trying to stay in the moment. I am going to a F2F meeting tonight.
Please give me strength to get through this. Please pray for a quiet separation for me and my children.
Thank you all for the help you have given me so far and the strength you have given me. I know in my heart this is the right thing to do ... however..... It is definately the hardest thing I have had to do.
Of course it is hard. I'm glad you are going to a meeting. It sounds like you have everything in place. Try not to do this when he has been drinking. I pray that this goes as easy as possible for you and your children.
You are in my heart, thoughts, and prayers. You sound well prepared. My A's ex mother in-law said to me...."oh your plate is so full, your cup runneth over" I told her until I asked my A to leave I didn't realize how big the saucer was under my cup. Support came from all directions, keep this in mind, you will be amazed of the support you will get. Hang in there.
Sounds to me like you have put some major thought and feelings into this, not to mention some prayer.
My strength and prayers are with you for the transition.
Father; Please give our sister Linda and her children the strength, wisdom, and courage to do what is necessary. I pray that you protect them from harm during this event, and that you help Linda see Your will for her, and give her the courage and strength to face that direction. AMEN
Praying for you and the kids. You have the inner strength and will get through this. Definitely wait until he is sober if that is possible. Luv Leo xxx
I am so glad I am up late to read this. I will be sending you positive and safe thoughts and many prayers your way today. HP will be with you but you are the one to do the footwork and know the timing. I agree to have a plan B if he is drunk. Be safe and keep us posted as soon as you can. May God and his Guardian Angels be with you during this day and carry you through safely to this needed seperation. May everything go smoothly as God means for it to be. God Bless and Keep You and the Kids in His loving care as he works his will. cdb
