13 years ago today....

It's been 13 years.
13 years ago today I took Kyle to work, went home, packed up everything I possibly could fit into my Oldsmobile and drove away; never looking back.
It was snowing something awful that night. I remember being scared that I had made the decision by leaving. I was scared of the snow storm behind me and the one in front of me.
Half way through Ohio I remembered a few things I had meant to take with me but had forgotten; wondering if I should turn around and get them but realized everything is replaceable except for my life.
I knew Kyle would be livid when I didn't pick him up from work that night and even more upset when he got home to realize his wife had packed up and left him.
It's been 13 years since I got the courage to save myself from a horrible marriage and a horrible human being.
13 years ago today my life changed for the better.
I'm forever grateful to my wonderful friends that supported me and encouraged me to leave before the unthinkable happened.
