It's over (and I don't feel any better)

Today was the day. The gavel has been banged and my marriage is officially dissolved. Not only do I not feel better, I feel awfully pessimistic about the future. At first I thought that the "big day" was going to be great. I was going to have a marriage license burning party and yada yada yada. All I've done today is go to court and come home and just kind of sat in quiet reflection trying not to feel any guilt, knowing that it's not all my fault, but at times punishing myself for things that were beyond my control. Why can't I get past the feeling that life just completely sucks. Maybe tommorow will be better.

I hope that tomorrow you can just dust yourself off and feel much better. I don't think that any of us have a clue how we will react to "that" day.

Today was also my day in court...however, divorce was not granted yet. That will supposedly occur on Dec1st once my stbx complies with the demands of the court. Already, though, a burden has been lifted. I still have to face stbx when I take someone with me to gather up the last of my personal items. I'm thinking his son would be a good choice;I know his son will protect me if stbx loses control...which he does quite frequently.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
