Leaving someone special

In the midst of preparing to move out-of-state, I am also dealing with leaving a man who I have grown close to over the last year and a half. During our time together, I have realized that he is not the man for me, at least long-term. I have even tried to break up with […]

Happy July 4th?

No plans for this holiday weekend???….well join the club. It came up on me fast and I put a couple feelers out but no bites, everyone else is busy it seems. Oh well, I will make the best of it. I can get some stuff done around the house, relax, enjoy time with the dogs. […]

Making it work

I haven’t written anything in a little while. Nothing too exciting has happened recently. I am still waiting for HIM sign the last settlement agreement, then sign over the deed so I can get the house in my name. WHAT IS TAKING SO LONG?????? I hate that parts of my life are on hold and […]

What a difference a year makes

I can’t believe that it’s been a year. Remember when you were young and a year took for ever? As you waited for your birthday, summer break, Halloween, Christmas, you know, the biggest things in a kids life.. As an adult, a year seems to go by so quickly. This past Sunday marks 1 year […]

Couple of updates..

When my nephew passed 3 weeks ago, I really struggled with the decision to let my soon-to-be-ex know the tragic news. He and my nephew had a pretty close relationship. My ex and I have not spoken since he left me last May, except through lawyers. I have no way to reach him so I […]

What time is it?

Time is powerful. It helps to heal, when you are in physical pain or sad or in mourning of a loss. Sometimes it seems to go slowly, when you are excited and waiting for something. Sometimes it goes fast, like when you look back at the last year and say “where did the time go?” […]

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. […]

2 little updates

I haven’t written in a while, not too much to write about. But I am back this week because of 2 things; The first is the legal process still drags on, with the other side still requesting ridiculous things. But what I have learned, per my lawyer, is that is all posturing. They are trying […]

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 […]
