Marilyn,
I am sending every positive thought I can your way. This isn't going to be easy, but you can do it. Just making the decision is a huge step forward. I so applaud you for thinking of your sons and giving your soon to be ex the opportunity to step up and do the right thing by them. If he fails it's on him.
Most people here probably have been through a hard break-up or divorce and can tell you what made it work for them. My mantra when I would have issues in my divorce process was "Stay the course, the sun will come up tomorrow and I will figure my way out of this too".
I know you can do this. And I know that you can come here to blow off steam when the whole thing is making you crazy. (And it will make you crazy at times).
Be brave, stay sweet, and take care of yourself and your boys.
"Holding on, letting go, right or wrong, it’s hard to know
You do your best and leave the rest to chance, fate, God or grace
Whatever gets you through"
The Hardest Thing - recorded by Van Zant
Hugs and prayers
