My inclination is that I've made it this far, and 4-5 more weeks is nothing.

I'm relieved that the settlement was not changed (because he wanted to make sure that he got a good deal) and that his lawyer advised him to go ahead and sign it.

Been watching some videos on YouTube about not overthinking, and other such topics to help me not dwell in the past and beat myself up.

The new job will be challenging and that will be my main focus - it will keep me busy until I learn all the ins and outs.

I had a great Friday, had lunch with a co-worker, and met another friend and her daughters yesterday. Thus far, there are many people who have offered to help and offered a place to stay. I'm too proud to take them up on their offers. Yesterday, my friend and her daughters made me feel loved. I have support and am grateful for that.

As of lately, doing real well. Thanks for checking!
WOW - good for you!!! All positive action steps.. congrats on the job, and for taking care of yourself emotionally and in other ways. I am glad you're no longer beating yourself up - that never does any good except make one feel far worse.
