Despite my best attempt at saving my M, this D is moving along. My atty has informed me that the court date is set for this Friday. WW has given me a ridiculous settlement proposal that is totally in her favor. Guess I shouldnt be surprised. She is so clueless. Anyway, I countered her offer, effectively throwing her a bone so that I dont have to watch my attorney essentially dismember her on the stand. But, I guess that will be her choice. Not mine.
Talked to a buddy of mine today that is in the mortgage business. He has me approved to refinance the house, whenever I am ready.
I have really grown weary of late. I am now just ready to get it over. Even if I have to give her a little more than what she deserves (which really is nothing).

Thanks Stormy. I am sure it will. With God's love and guidance I know that I can overcome all. I just want this woman, who nowhere resembles my W, out of my life. I have many positive things in my life, and I dont need this albatross hanging around my neck any longer. I have a wonderful family, a great job, outstanding friends, a church I love.....I have a LOT to be thankful for. For me, the sun already shines, the birds already sing. I know that the sun will shine brighter and those same birds are going to sing louder as soon as this is wrapped up.

And so do you Stormy! Trust me, you will have that if you ask God for it. It might not come right away, but if you will committ to running your race and continuing to seek His will for your life, you will receive peace and joy. Another wonderful thing comes along with peace and joy. Its called hope. Hope is what we all need. God has given me hope and he will give it to you as well.

Just got off the phone with my atty. My court date is set for tomorrow morning. So, he and WW's atty are trying to settle this today. I had to come up on my offer a little bit. Not a problem as I have already consulted with a mortgage lender on a home equity and refinance loan and I have been pre-approved already at a lower rate than what I am paying now. Guess I will be single very soon now. I am glad that my team is in town and I have home games the next four nights. I will be busy. Not sure when it is going to set in fully, but for some strange reason I feel a peace about this. I guess maybe it is knowing that I did all I can.

I'm glad your feeling peace about this. I'm still waiting for my D to become final too. I hope the finality of it will help me move ahead and break the chains that I feel are holding me. It's always great to read someone with strong convictions about God and their future. Just by reading I can tell that you will be ok and things will be great for you once again. I'll pray for you and the situation your going through. I know its been a hard summer for you too.

Tim,
thanks a lot for your prayers and thoughts. A tough summer it has been indeed. But I have survived. And you will too. Yesterday was strange indeed. After tendering an offer to WW's attorney, that he had indicated beforehand that would be acceptable, WW suddenly (in her atty's words) gut a bug up her a$$ and refused it. WW's atty said that he neither had the time or the patience to explain to her yesterday why she should accept it. My atty thinks that she will chew on it this weekend and possibly accept it next week. The thing is, according to my atty, if we go to court she will more than likely end up with less than we have offered and will increase her legal bill as a result. What a mess she has become. I dont feel sorry for her at all anymore.

Thanks Alph. Strong headed definitely, and thats probably one of my faults. Actually my strength is not my strength at all. It is from the Lord. I give all the credit to him. I am deserving of none of it. No way I could walk this walk alone.
