congrats to you, sexymama, and to your mother, wonderelk.
My triumph? Easy. I lived in a loveless marriage for 8 years. The last 4 or 5 of the were spent with him sleeping in another room barely even talking to me. I had said to him many times, "Get out." He always thought I was joking. Then, finally, he understood and found another place to live. I had started dating again (what a horror story that is in itself) while we were separated. Now, we are officially divorced. That is not the "triumph".... this is: I've met my soul mate.
