thought our world was over when X won in court, he took everything but the house, but now Im doing great, sold house within 2 weeks at the asking price, brother called to say I could just take over his old house just get it out of name, he was renting it out, X's friend from his last command helped me out with going to Navy Legal they gave me all the paperwork to give to my new lawyer about getting half of his retirement the Judge wouldnt rule on, found a great rental til Appeals are over, no deposits, all furnished even washer & dryer older couple that are great, got storage rental for my furniture found out that my home owner policy will cover items then rental insurance will, didnt have to put any money out. Great yard sale made enough to pay new attorney the other half of his fees, hated to get sell the items but they reminded me of X lots of stuff he had bought me from overseas our son even put toys Dad had got him he didnt want the MOW kids to get them. My Mom's neighbor called saying he will sell his house across the street as a fixer-upper now I have 2 choices. Older son got married we can live with him til we find a house and then he can live with us and baby sit his brother, My brother-in-law called to tell me he has me a job with his company when I get home. X friends from the police force are now helping me with finding a place to live & what X was doing on duty with MOW, told me all about MOW, X said she was thin but the guys are saying no she is heavier than me and with a big butt. I had laught all day about that one, he used to make fun of big butts. X's old master chief is Divorce wants me to call when I move home so we can go out to dinner by that time I should be ready to start dating again, he is more my age than my X was Im 6 years older than my X & he has 2 small boys that my son will love to be with. I now know that prayers do come true. My son told me never to cry about Daddy again because we have each other and thats what counts. X will never have the love that our son can give, he has nobody to blame but himself. He hurt 2 people who really loved him but we have to go on living our lives without him.I hope he is happy with his married girlfriend and her 3 kids and hope he treats them better than he did his own son. Maybe one day he will see what he did to us and why we feel the way we do about him. Just hang in there it does get better after Divorce.
