Going self employed: Consequences of hard times?

Hmm . Can you sit tight and when the crunch comes kick like hell and claim constructive dismissal !!!

Well, rightly or wrongly, today I resigned from my fulltime job.

The pictures I observed via my daughters facebook page of X and New BF playing happy families really hurt, and caused a great deal of upset.

To avoid the daily reminder, and to put my destiny in my own ,I have taken this decision. Contracting we go.

New environment, New people, New start.... perhaps I may just start living my life based on my decisions, rather than waiting for things to happen.

If it goes wrong, at least I tried.

Thanks for such constructive words...

Well Z you have taken the leap !! As you say new start etc. Looking back I now see that even in my darkest days I was making progress. I also keep looking at things and saying this wasn't here, that has changed, Ive been to here, done that. And the interesting thing is that I did this all without my x being part of it.
Last night I put an old hard disk in my computer and found pictures of my x. The funny thing is that looking at them I did not feel anything at all. Obviously I was overlooking the imperfections through rosy coloured specs when married and now realise that I can do a lot better now.
So brave start, there is only two ways to go now, forward and upward and just leave your x behind !!
