Hello Friends, it's been awhile. Maybe a few of you still remember me

My divorce was final June 13th. Finally, it almost looked like she was going to delay it again. DDay was May 2004, Filed for DV in July 2004. Then in January 2005 began a series of failed reconciliation attempts. The Ex quit counseling twice during that time. The counseling would start well, but after about the fourth meeting, when things were required of her, she quit.

Funny how I felt going into the Attny office the morning before the final hearing ... I felt completely different, not the wreck I was two years ago. Almost cheery, and eager. Though if I had my druthers I would still have my family together. But I could only do my part, I couldn't do hers. When I really realized that ... I felt a true inner peace.

Anyway, I'm feeling good, behaving for the most part, and looking forward to making new plans for my future. That is the part that was the hardest. Feeling robbed of my future and my plans and goals and dreams. But I have a few new ones now, and things are looking good.

I want to thank everyone on here who put up with me, and gave me some great advice (most of which I took, and some which I took much to late) This board was really a life preserver for me when I needed it most, when I couldn't even tread water, you guys and girls helped me keep my head above the water and showed me the steps I needed to take to help myself and my family.

Blessings on all of you.
