I Thought i was happily married for 14 yrs. I was your typical stay at home, pta going mom. I loved my life, my kids were in great schools, happy, financially there were problems but I just thought this was normal. It wasnt, he had a drug problem and I just found out about it. We moved once and he told me our lease was up, which it was, he had planned to move to South Carolina, we had always talked about it, we love it there.....so being our lease was up we thought it was time, we had about 2 or 3 months transition, til we were ready to go. We packed stuff in storage, took an apartment where he works, they offered it for free, we had to move out of the girls school district and for a couple of months I home schooled, till we were able to go. Well he drops the bomb on me.......we were told to leave our house the landlord did not want to re sign with us, becasue our rent was always late.....now he tells me about the drugs and money problems, and how now is not the right time to move, I can not keep my girls out of school anymore, the schools in Philadelphia are terrible, I desperately want to go back to the town we used to live in and get my girls settled...........I know i can do this, its scary, but I need to do this.
