A Divorce Story

Can I suggest..that if you can manage it, don't get a divorce?
I started this whole ordeal in April. I managed to mess up serving papers twice, but had to wait a month in between doing so before I realized it. The instructions said that you could just mail it. -So I did. Turns out...I need a certified mail receipt. That would have been nice to know...
SO! Certified mail receipt time. Gets signed by his mom. Also bad. Turns out...HE has to sign it. *sigh*
So I did away with the whole mailing business, and decided to hire someone from the sheriff's department instead to take care of this business. I mean, they've done it before, they have to know what to do, yes? At the beginning of July, the sheriff's deputy made his first visit to their house, only to find out that my "husband" had left for Portland (with two girls in tow, mind you) and was going to be gone for a month. Woo....more waiting for me.
As you could probably guess, his month of time is now over. So, the sheriff went over there yet again. Apparently, whoever answered the door there was super rude to him, and his family has decided that they wouldn't cooperate with the sheriff's department at all. Hooray for me, right? He asked them why they wouldn't cooperate, and they just said that said "husband" wants to make this as difficult for me as possible. Tell you what, at this point, I'm really starting to feel that he "misses me" and that "i'm the only one for him" blah blah blah...
Luckily for me, the court felt the pain of the sheriff's deputy more than they did my own. So they allowed him to just drop off the papers at the house, not directly to him, but what other choice did we have at this point? So now I am waiting again, crossing my fingers that the next 20 days goes by uninterrupted, and that I don't have to attempt to serve papers again.
I can understand someone having sore feelings about getting divorced, and wishing that it wasn't happening to them. Heck, I wish it wasn't happening to me. But when they're seeing other people...sleeping with other people, wouldn't you agree that it's just time that they let it go? I don't think it would bother me so much if I didn't know what had been going on with him in the last 6 months. But if I've learned anything from this ordeal it's that the truth hurts. -A lot. But, it's better than being lied to for ages.

Something New

I don't think that I've ever had a guy tell me that I'm beautiful each night before I go to bed. -Until now. If you haven't guessed yet, I have someone new in my life. His name is Brandon.
I haven't ever felt so..cared for by someone before. In fact, it's quite a shock. I'm not used to it yet. I wake up every morning wondering how I got so lucky, and dancing around the house, hoping that I'll hear from him soon.
I don't know what is going to happen in the future between us, the future is just too unreliable like that. -I think most of us know that by now. But, I'm hoping to have him around for a long long time. :)
