One big step for me....I called MY lawyer.

Yesteday, I had no clue which one...the phone book has too many!!!

Last night when Riley (my little dog) and I were taking out the trash, my neighbor Mr.B, was riding his bike and asked how I was.

In the dark, fog, and drizzle at 10 pm we talked about what happened. MrB is with an insurance company and knew many lawyers. He suggested two but told me a great lawyer lives in our subdivision. Mr. B knows the reputation of the firm...

I called...and stuttered with my words....I didn't know what to say, but the receptionist was conforting and I feel a huge weight off my shoulder for having made this connection.

I have still not responded to anything about H wanting to go to mediation instead of D....It's almost pathetic to have had those papers served me if H wanted mediation instead. H should have tried that route with me first.

I would love to hear H is doubting himself now....and that H is freakin' nervous!!
