Thanks Golden_eve. Really appreciate your kind words. Yes, it is time for me to get a move on with things. Interestingly, ever since I have expressed myself on here, and gotten this out, the chemistry at the house has changed. This is the first time I have opened up about this to anyone outside my family. I think me setting my energy towards mentally and physically creating distance has somehow translated to us being cordial with one another, but I think she can also feel the shift too. It'll be an interesting end to 2017.
