Goodbye, my sweet kitty

Last night I did something very difficult. I took my cat to her new home. I bought everything a cat needs, a new litter box, litter, food, food and water bowls and toys. I cleaned my litter genie and brought that too. I didn’t want to new owner, Charlotte, to have to get anything to start. […]

Time for a change

I need to make my house MY house. I painted the paneling in the living room and hallway. It really brightens the room up! A girlfriend of mine said that the hallway wall was screaming for a picture that I shot from a vacation she and I took together. That got me thinking. I […]

When the ex gets remarried..

I have been trying to stay positive, but it has come to my attention, that the ex is getting remarried soon. The divorce was just final this past December! The feelings and emotions, swirling around in my head, are having quite the party. Did someone say party? I need to have a party! A party would get […]

19 months and its 99% over

My divorce was final on 12/3(3 days before my 50th birthday) but I got the notice in the mail today!!! How do I feel, you ask? Well, I feel empty, relieved, happy, sad, broke, and like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. There’s just one more detail that has to be taken care […]

9/15 is nothing special now

I didn’t even realize today’s date until I was wishing someone a happy birthday online. Today would have been my 24th wedding anniversary, but instead, its the tail end of my divorce. I am still waiting for to see the final papers with his signatures. I cant believe how fast time has gone, but how […]

Constant reminders

Being in the wedding industry doesn’t help me get over my marriage ending. Every day, I talk with brides and help them plan their wedding and every day, I think about my situation. It’s their happy time and my sad time. I watched a really great documentary on HBO called 112 weddings. I would highly […]

Sadness and progress…

So much going on…from the recent tragedy, my nephews death, R.I.P J, to my divorce proceedings. The healing process has begun. It’s not goodbye, it’s see you down the road. Such a young man to leave us so soon. Thank you for all of your kinds words of support. Please do NOT drink and drive. […]

Another senseless tragedy

I have experienced a lot of loss and sadness in my life and this past weekend, my family was hit again. One of my nephews, only 20 years old, died due to a car accident 2 days ago. Such a tragedy. He had an argument with his girlfriend and got in his car to come […]

Pets and divorce

Still going through the divorce process, 10 months now, and my lawyer called me today. He recently received a letter from “the other side” that claims that “he” now wants the dogs. ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? After everything you did to me and now you want to take the dogs??? He is claiming that they […]

Tears

I admit that I am a pretty emotional person, so much so that I can even cry during some commercials, depending on the subject. You know… those specific beer commercials they show during the Superbowl for example? If I see someone crying, I cry too. So of course, I have cried plenty of tears since […]
