It feels so good to finally be up for air.  These last few months have been hectic due to my career and its relationship with the Ferguson, MO shooting.  Things have calmed down tremendously for me...

Just a quick rant.  So while waiting at the bus stop with my son at 6:30 this morning, I received a call from a good friend.  My son got on his bus and we started talking while I was walking in the...

This month has flown by and I can say that I have gotten to a point where I am not angry with my ex-husband and how he has treated us.  I have had quite a few good thoughts of him lately.  This is...

So, I took a second driver's lesson on Saturday and unfortunately it was horrible. The teacher expected me to pretty much read his mind when it came to directions.  He would not tell me if he wanted...

So it's been almost a month since I wrote here and so much has happened, yet I do not remember all of it.  After the divorce proceedings, I would say for about a good two weeks I felt invincible....

A couple of weeks before the divorce, I was in a dark place.  I started to question if I was making the right decision.  Would I find someone to love me for who I am or would they use me like he...

Well my court date is approaching very soon and for some reason, I am calm.  I have accepted what has happened and I am ready to be divorced.  What I have noticed about myself over the last few...

While many have advised against this, I sat here today and wrote my STBX a rather short letter.  I will give it to him after the divorce is finalized.  I included a sentence at the beginning of the...

So yesterday, my phone was going off all day with texts and voice mails from people asking me how I was doing.  I felt it odd that people I have not talked to since my STBX left were now inquiring...

As I go through this process of healing, I am still baffled by the ups and downs of my emotions.  For the last couple of weeks, I have hated my STBX.  I was forced to go to a parenting class...

So the last couple of weeks have been a tough one for me and my boys.  My youngest thought that his father would pick him up for the 4th of July and they would spend the day together as they have...

So, I have been moving through each day being optimistic when suddenly today, I feel so alone.  I did not have to work today, so I did a lot of cleaning and cooking at home.  However, I felt like...

I finally have a court date for the divorce.  Yeah!!  However, the court has offered us mediation before we appear before the judge.  My STBX and I can have everything settled before hand and when...

So my NC went out the window yesterday.  My STBX contacted me at work concerning getting off of my cellphone plan and transferring over to a new one completely for him. Sure enough he pays his...

I have no idea what has happened with my STBX.  He is still is an asshole, but now his intentions on dragging me through a hellish divorce have somewhat subsided.  He refused to sign the paternity...
