19 Days until we live apart. 19 Days until I don’t see his boots at the front door. 19 Days that I won’t ask him to take the garbage out. 19 Days until I have to get my own coffee.
19 days until I’m no longer a housewife.
My first marriage ended in destruction and catastrophe. It left me hollow not knowing who I was.
This time we are celebrating the crazy amazing last 15 years of what we’ve created. We both know it’s time to grow up and stop being co dependent on each other. We have fallen so in love with each other that we can recognize that living together is enabling us both. We are both willing to let go and cheer each other on from a far.
We’ve cried together and are scared of what’s next. We also both feel like we are sending a kid off to college so proud and sad and excited and scared and mostly proud. We are both thrilled of what comes next.
Everyday feels like a dream. I didn’t know saying goodbye to a relationship could be like this. I thought there had to be blame and hurt and hate. I thought getting out of this comfort would require destruction. I’m amazed that the kids that started out with a toxic co dependent relationship have been able to heal together this much and do something I’ve never seen before.
Will we thrive living apart- DONT KNOW.
Will we both thing WHAT THE HELL HAVE WE DONE?— DONT KNOW.
Will we end up back together? Maybe
Will we find out we were more toxic than we knew- maybe.
Will we become best friends? Maybe.
All we know is I move out on the 24th and we will soak up every day like it’s the last- because it is. Life as we have both known is coming to an end.
Just goes to show you can do life however you want! And just maybe, when you listen to your soul- SHE IS NOT WRONG!
Wake Her Up and dare to listen and do what she wants to do, then sit back and watch the magic happen.
Here we go!
