Is it normal for me to be frightened?

Hello all,

I'm looking for some encouragement and advice from other women who have been where I am currently.

My H and I are getting a divorce. Long story and I'm not going into why, however it's something we've both agreed where our marriage is headed. If you're curious you may read the other thread I started.

The divorce process is on hold due to the fact that I'm a SAHM that works part time, but trying to reenter the full time work force.

We have both agreed that our children need both parents in their lives so we will have 50/50 residential and financial custody. Now, he will always make at least 3x the money as myself as he never left the workforce, so he will have some child support to pay and agreed to it but I plan on being able to support my children just as much as he. Also, as I will not be able to pay the mortgage on the house, he will be keeping the house, and me being the one to move out. I want him to keep the house so the children may claim residence there and continue to attend their school. Because of this, I will not receive spousal support, which is fine with me, I don't want anything from him.

I've been applying for jobs for weeks and got my first call back. I'm excited but also VERY frightened. My future is unset and I have no money. Is it normal to feel this way? I know my family would never let me or my kids live on the streets and will always be there for me, however this call back is the 1st step in this process.

Did anyone else feel this way?

Thank you,
Sunray
