I am still going to hang around the MLC thread, since now exwife is still in MLC. I am not ready to just roll over and die. I am over the initial shock of receiving the final paperwork. It is not the end of the world. The Lord is taking care of me, only time will tell where he will lead me.

Working, taking care of the house and kids. This weekend a bunch of guys from church are going kayaking, should be a blast.Praying for guidance, bible studies, hanging with my oldest son and his family.
My life is good, very good. Not happy about what happened to my marriage, but that is only one aspect of my life. It certainly does not Define who I am, in the past it did, but I am not that person any longer.I read what you wrote to another person about the LBS's changes and when the MLC'er comes out of their funk,by then the dynamics have totally changed. If my ex wife does ever come out of her funk, I really do not know how I would react. Only time will tell.

Jack, you are right, I truly pray I do get that chance.

After the mental meltdown of receiving the final divorce decree, I seem to be calm.Nothing in our relationship has changed, she is just as oblivious as ever. In the process of taking her name off life insurance, IRA, and 401k, also health insurance.I feel like I have a big D tatooted on my back.I hate that feeling.

Craig, I'm in a similar sitch. My D was final(?) in October. I question anything as being final as I would never have thought I wouldnt be still married to my best friend. So on the other hand, since circumstances make it appear to be over and general consensus would be that it is over permanently, I have decided to continue being a father and a husband (without the obvious external signs) and pray for her, my children and myself.
Praying for you too, Craig.

I think it is ok to feel crappy for at least a week.I just got back from a business trip, and while being in a hotel by myself, it hit me , I have no one to call home too.I have for so long kept everything under the db headline, I did not allow myself to deal and feel some of the pain and loss.I lay it at the Lords feet and will let him ease my pain. Hey it has only been a week.Jack you are dead on .I will carry myself with my head up and know that I am ok, more than ok.This whole thing comes off in layers, I just need to continue to peel them off and deal with them. Missmyfriend, I understand fully what you are saying. I continue to pray for my wife.
