Welcome to divorcing Elaina! How are you doing emotionally with it? How are your kids doing? Hi Susie! My kids are doing fine. The oldest 2 are not his and he never bonded with them so the oldest is to busy with his own life to really care (he is 15 and in college) and the younger girl (10)is thrilled honestly. Our DD4 year old doesn't totally get what divorce is, but she is used to going out and thinks now she will just get more daddy/daughter dates so I will have to just watch over her as she grows. AS for me, I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off of me. I still have moments of sadness but I am at peace. That said, I do love the house we moved into. It has a community pool that we have used a ton, and its a good location. I like my new job... I feel like I am helping people. I am trying to forge some new relationships but still have some older friends to talk to some. My folks moved here a year and a half ago so I am happy to have them close as well. I have decided to look for a new church so we will see what I find.

HI!
My divorce was final on the 5th.
My kids are doing just fine. My 15 year old starts another semester in college, my 10 year old seems to be thriving and my 4 year old is just so darn cute!
Transfers are going fine and now that it is over-I think things are going better then they did when we were together.
So there is my update!
Work is going well (I love love my job)
I still home school the 2 younger ones (since my oldest is done)
I have been asked to become the worship leader at church (I am a really good singer) Still deciding
I am looking at other work, but I love my house and my job now so it is slow going!
I changed my last name in the Divorce and that is cool but not fun getting all my stuff changed!
I feel really good about myself and remember that I am a really wonderful, beautiful woman and am happy.
I love MB and have read everything Dr. H has ever written at this point.
