Not bad. We had a big thunderstorm come through last night but didn't do much damage.

It isn't too cold right now so other than the mud in my back yard I can't complain. \:\)

Terrific news on the job front(s), Fender! Yea for you!

On the "it's official" front - well, remember, that's just a piece of paper. You moved on to much better things a long time ago. Yea for you again!

Thanks for the well wishes everyone.

Fig, I never would reject you. I think someone else, who is a great shot by the way, would hunt me down like a dog if I snooped in your direction, LOL.

Well court went really well today. The judge approved our agreement as it was with no changes. He also approved our divorce. So as of today I am a single dad.

My friend that came with me to court asked me if I felt different now? I truthfully said no, as in my mind the marriage was over quite some time ago. Today was nothing more than a formality and held no special meaning for me.

Fig the interview is tomorrow at 8:15 and then another one at 3:15. It seems that the team will see me in the AM and the HR guru will see me that afternoon. He is in training all day and can't make the morning meeting.

They were so apologetic for asking me to come in twice in one day. I have to meet the team I will be working with and they all work midnight to 8am. That is why I have two interviews in one day for the same job.

I told them no problem, all the while thinking in my mind "of course I will come in twice in one day, you are trying to give me a job."

As far as there being no changes in the divorce agreement, I totally dodged a bullet. Listen, she left me and our kids without so much as a real reason why. Just took off, saying when does her life start. So in my mind she deserved what she took with her and nothing else. However, Federal law states that she was entitled to half of my retirement pay, even though she is the one that left. For her to agree to let me keep that and the house but even more importantly D12 was HUGE!

I wish her nothing but happiness and mean that from the heart. I bear her no ill will what so ever and I feel like she feels the same way. We talk like normal people and there is no yelling and finger pointing. I make sure she has unlimited access to D12 and I constantly remind S18 to call his mom, although he is not very close to her at the moment.
