Just signed the dissolution paperwork. YAY!!!!!!!! Next up: he signs, his L files the paperwork, we both attend mandatory parenting class, court date is set, show up in court. The end.
In the meantime, I'm busy packing and prepping for my new life back in home state. I can't wait. It will be here very soon.

Thank you, guys. I'm focusing on the future and moving my life forward, which feels so much better than trying to dissect the past constantly. I've learned and grown from it, and now I can put those lessons into practice in my new life. Thank you all for helping me along this journey. I think that the best thing about DB is that it saves you, whether you want to save your marriage or not. In my case, I do not. But I absolutely feel that I have a new lease on life.

I am SO excited for you. I hope and pray that you find moving to be as cathartic as I did. The world is full of possibilities for you, my friend, so just go embrace them!

Just a quick note to say I will be signing off. My court date for the dissolution is set for next month, and I'm moving back to my home state in a couple of weeks. I am so excited to start the next chapter of my life on my own!
Thank you very much to those of you who helped guide me along the path from despair to happiness, who helped me to see that my self-worth is not dependent upon the actions of another; and that I don't need someone else to "complete" me. I am happy, I am whole, and I will do my best to guide my daughter as we shift gears and to demonstrate to her what it looks like to be a strong, independent woman.
Hugs to you all, and I wish you the best in your journey to improve your lives, whatever form that might take.

Ahoy, I hope you don't really mean you are signing off. We want to know how your new life is going, it's something you've been looking forward to for a long time. I wish you all the best!
