Well, it is done. Apparently my final divorce decree was signed 1/31/08. I am divorced. No fanfare, I wasn't even aware of it that day. I have been checking the court website daily and saw it today. It was granted the day before my birthday. And my name change was granted as well, so I am back to my maiden name. When I saw it I got that feeling in my stomach, but no real sadness. I will tell the kids this afternoon.
