More clarity

The path of financial self-sufficiency is clearly what's being supported. Yesterday saw a parade of friends through, and when people show up, I take it as confirmation. Yes.

Looking around the house, if I were to stay, I would like to repaint the living room, from the shiny olive that Current Husband painted it over the summer to something cheerier, perhaps a melon or salmony shade. Refinish the floor. Rip up the carpeting in the bedroom and office, and repaint. Big project would be to rip out the deck, remove the hot tub - or fix it and rebuild the deck around it. I thought part of why I got married was to have a partner in doing these things, but it didn't turn out that way. I would also like to have a door on my bathroom downstairs, and have that project finished. DO I have the money for this? No, but now I have an idea.

And with the store, I am having ideas too - so focus, focus, focus. Leave the boys behind, or at least keep them in a place that suits my needs, not theirs. I need to put things in the correct order: Me, The Store, The Cats, The Finances, My Friends...............................................................boys.
