One of my favorite lines from the book!!! Yes!!!

Well I am not wasting my pretty any more. Attorney just emailed, he wants to meet the week of 12/7 to write up a settlement proposal. Wow. Only 2 weeks...if Dan agrees to it which I imagine he will, I will be all but divorced before Christmas. Just a matter of the waiting period...

I loved that line. I read the book a few months ago after seeing the movie...definitely liked the book better. It was also a point for me where I realized that I did have more to offer, as do you.

It is good to see you healing, and doing so well! Sometimes it takes us time, but eventually the healing does begin, and the pain subsides...


Im still standin better than I ever did looking like a true survivor feeling like a little kid Im still standin after all this time and Im picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind..

Yep, Nikki... grin

And the part where he said men ask him why he doesn't point out to women that sometimes it IS their fault they are single?

And the author says, well, I probably wouldn't sell too many copies of "It's Your Fault You Crazy Bitch!"

Double Wow! Things sure do move fast out there in Iowa - divorced before Christmas!! Here in Virginia you have to live separated in "Limboland" for 1 year (if kids are involved) before you can even file for divorce, which is not a bad thing IF there is an even remote chance of reconcilliation.

Well he moved out at New Year's so we are coming up on a year, anyway...

I wouldn't be legally divorced at Christmas. I may, however, have all the paperwork done by Christmas. Then it is just a waiting game. Would it be ironic if they signed off on April Fool's Day???

My atty already emailed me back. Set up a meeting for December 9. So in 15 days I will be writing up my settlement...

Oh I didn't realize the separation was that long. Then that's probably about the same as here in VA.

Yes April Fool's Day would be appropriate don't you think - since I believe he is quite the fool for letting you go and putting you and your kids through this mess he's created. Unfortunately for him, by the time he realizes what a fool he is it will be way too late for him.

Hey Bobbi, I'm really sad to hear that, but I'm glad you are so 'together'. You dont bitch and whine, you're really a brave woman!

I'm glad that things are amicable with H though and he is able to come round the house and put up lights for the kids (although guess you will be reinforcing those boundaries as time goes by). My Auntie, whose children were younger than yours never spoke to her H again, or him to her, not sure which. Not healthy.

I actually believe him that he hasnt yet let go of you and is still 'trying'. He sounds scared. I guess he knows, realistically theres a good chance he would end up being unfaithful again and he cant face putting you through that.

Hugs xxx
