      From lisak1379 May 24

      Sometimes it takes real effort to remember and appreciate the little “good” things that happen in day to day life – even when there is no turmoil to overshadow them. Remember what you wrote… “I am a worthy person and I just finished my two year degree in business. A lot of good is on my life” Believe it because it is true.

      I again asked my husband for a dissolution. We have been married for 9 years and together for 12. We have lived apart more than 50 percent of that time. He is an alcoholic and workaholic. I am hurt and angry. I have stood by him through numerous treatment programs and encouraged and supported him through the years. After 12 years I am now in a low income apartment and taking care of my youngest son. We did not have kids together.
