HI cheeps, I don't have much to add or much time, but I wanted to share that we have much in common. I too have been married 17 years and have homeschooled my children (now 15, 14, 11, 10, and 6). I am divorcing my abusive husband finally after realizing it is never going to change. I do have a business I started a few years ago and we have made our agreement and I am staying in the home and buying him out. I look forward to seeing you around. This is a veritable treasure trove of support and information.
