Well, I almost got shushed by the judge for my giggling. I really thought I'd be a little sad and maybe shed a tear or two. I was happy to see tissues on the table beside me. However, after we got started I got really tickled. At one point (near the end) my attorney looked over to see me doing a little happy dance in my seat. She plans to request a copy of the video recording of the procedings so she can put them on her myspace page, lol




LOL!!! Will we be seeing "The Giggling Divorcee" on youtube soon?????

I imagine not too many LBSs giggle in the courtroom - I take it as a good sign that you are well over your H and looking forward to the future.

Honestly - given your H's past history of abandoning his previous family before yours, his pathology runs so deep, you are well out of his mess. I'm so impressed with how you managed to pull yourself up, dealing with all those kids essentially on your own, getting back to work, etc. etc. You rock, girl!

I'm so enjoying the image of tha WAH squirming in his seat, wondering why LBS is so happy to be rid of him, instead of collapsing in a heap of tears. I bet that turned his world view on its head!!!! And I think you're right = he's probably not too happy to lose his excuse not to marry oW.

Good for you, April!!! Bet you're glad to have this over with, huh? It's been waaaay too long in coming.

April, you really are an amazing person. Like KML said, raising 4 kids on your own, finishing school, working at what you love and I could go on and on. Now, unless I missed something, where'd this new guy come from??? Hmmmmm?

What a joke about lowering your CS. How can you lower $0?

April,

Consorrulations (Or something like that, ask Betsey) on the finalized D.

You do sound good. Your guy sounds pretty good, too. I guess this isn't the guy you mentioned to us in your earlier threads?

The Ex will have to find a new reason why he can't marry OW. Too bad. It still amazes me that she'd be with him knowing how he's treated his own family.

More power to you!

Thanks,

Joe

Lambsie!!! How are things? Drop me an email sometime, would ya?

No new guy...old guy...the "no sparks" guy from long ago that "broke up with me" over the summer. It's an odd situation, but I'm going with the flow and enjoying his company.

I haven't been on here in so long. Work is still good. My kids have been sick this past week...hopefully they'll get healthy soon.

I've made an appointment with a therapist to work on some issues...stress, relationships, etc...I'm hoping to get some perspective and some new ideas on how to handle my life. There's no major problems, I just think I can do better than I am.

The Ex eventually got served with the contempt charge in mid-December. He called and threw a fit about how his doctor wouldn't release him to work. Strangely enough, he was released a week later, lol. I still haven't seen any CS, but you'll have that. Maybe in another week or two? I'll be sure to post a picture of me holding my breath.

I hope you're all doing well. I really need to check in more often.

April!

You continue to amaze me with your ability to persevere and press on with life despite your ex's thorough lack of support or assistance.

Glad to see that you're not pressing on the R front. It'll happen if it's meant to be.

Take care,

FL
