Hi Basil

You did a great job, and you have nothing to be sad about.

 

Your kids are happy that's what matters.

 

Your husband is a jerk, try finding a new boyfriend that's a good guy, someone without  drinking problems or will even lay a hand on you.

 

Good luck!

Dear Angel05: You have raised 5 children and obviously, raised them well. Do not belittle your talents. Haven't you ever hear the quote "The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world."? As far as losing your husband to friend goes, were either one of them worthy of you? I doubt it. This is the end of that part of your life but new opportunities will unfold. Allow change to enhance your skills and move forward. I am sure if you stop to think about it, you could come up with a list of skills you have developed that would make any personal assistant envious. Search within yourself to find what excites and inspires you and find a way to make it profitable. Blessings, Elain e
