Today I am officially divorced. Thanks to Sis #1 for standing in for me in court and my awesome attorney Diane. They take such good care of me.
It's bittersweet, but more sweet than bitter.
Have some cake for me today. And if you are married, go hug and kiss and kiss your spouse/partner.
Posted by debutaunt at February 1, 2006 10:18 AM I don't know if congratulations are the proper term but Congratulations. No more lose ends or dead wood to carry around. Now you will not have to waste your precious energy on that part of your life. Today is a new beginning…..don’t look back, just go forward , have fun and keep those #’s up.
Your fiend in Boston

"Today is a new beginning"
That it is.
Hugs,

Welcome to the first page of your new chapter.
I promise to have some cake for you if you promise to spray fox urine on your porch for me. :)
(er, well, not for ME, per se, but to get rid of the raccoons and...well, I'm just digging myself in deeper)

You're doing great.

If he lets me get close enough I'll try for a kiss tonight. I'll probably end up back on the floor with dinner in my hair, but assignments are assignments! Ha!
Posted by: sally at February 1, 2006 03:16 PMI kissed him smack dab in public, no less! He kissed me back!! I felt 17... and then got all embarrassed, but like Sally says, an assignment's an assignment and I've always been an excellent and responsible student...!
I'm glad you and Zoe get to move into the future together, and I'm sorry your ex didn't want to be the person who would/could go there with you, hand-in-hand. So glad you discovered it before more precious time was thrown away, though. Your new horizons are all yours, and I'm excited to read about what you will choose to do, and with whom. Best wishes!!
Posted by: eclectic at February 1, 2006 04:35 PMOddly enough, this is the anniversary of one of the happiest days of my life - the anniversary of when my husband asked me to marry him. I of course, said yes and we remain happily married. Today, we begin what I call the Valentine Saga - he spoils me on our anniversary (New Year's Eve), so, I spend 14 days - from Feb 1 - Feb 14 spoiling him each day with a small surprise letting him know how much he means to me.
Love is alive Deb.
He went to give donate blood yesterday. I told him it was for you and me, since I can't donate. They rejected him. When he called, he found out it was - get this - because the chairs at the center he was going to donate weren't sturdy enough to hold him. He's 6'7" and 330lbs. I told him he was too much man for that old center and had to go to his regular place to donate. He's gonna take my brother and nephews to make sure some others get blood too!
hugs, Linda
