Our initial status conference was scheduled for Oct. 29, but due to a snowstorm was postponed until Dec. 14. The Dec. 14 conference was a disaster and I fired my attorney and hired a new one. My stbxh feels I deserve nothing, should get nothing, and will receive nothing after 20 years. This is a business deal and I'm a fighter, so he's out of luck.
My sleeping and vision have both been compromised and I'm mad as heck, but dealing with it. There are worse things that could have happened.
I took a 10-week seminar that was amazing and I was able to build so many new supportive friendships that have carried me so far. Also, mountainwest and pearlharbor....it's been great meeting both of you.:)
Will update more, but I'm doing well and hopefully you are all, too. Life really does get better through all this.

Get everything you deserve. They all think you should get nothing, but justice prevails. I like your attitude.

I hope everyone had a great holiday! I'm so glad it's 2010 and just ready to start a new chapter. For those of you who don't know my sitch, my stbxh had an affair with the VP of his company and the suspicion of hidden assets, etc. might soon come to fruition. Did I/we ask for any of this? Of course not, but the journey, although emotional, has caused me to take a hard look at myself and how I contributed to the collapse of the marriage and how I will take the information into my future relationships. Lots of work on myself and lots more to do. I definitely subscribe to the GAL mentality and am starting to again do all the things I loved and forgot about. My permanent orders are set for April 16 if all works out and I hope to be well on my way before then. My advice is to surround yourself with supportive and positive people, take time to vent, but also move forward each and every day (whatever that looks like for you). I no longer beat myself up over my mistakes and what I could have done differently. It is what it is and this is so much more about him than me. BUT, I now make my life about ME and that's the difference. Thanks to each and everyone of you for the support you gave me when I couldn't get off the floor in those early summer months.
