I called my aunt and we had a good talk. It helped me get a little more wind in my sails. She told me that in her opinion ( and she's walked every step of the way with me on this) is that XH really and truly misled me to believe things weren't as bad as they were.
And on another note....Xh told me last weekend he would turn in the title to the vehicle with the final paper work. When I came to sign the papers at my attorney's office, guess what? Xh didn't turn in the title to the vehicle. I've only requested that 4 times in the last year. His attorney was promptly contacted, and XH brought the title shortly after I left.
Did he really forget? Another power play? Heck I don't know. He seems very forgetful lately.
Tonight is his overnighter with the girls, and I am working an evening shift at work to help cover vacations. Think it's good for me to work this afternoon. Wonder if ANYTHING will register with him after signing our divorce papers and then having our children together..... I highly doubt it.
Im doing ok though, objectively Im relieved to get this going. I can't file bankruptcy till my divorce is final, and I need to get that taken care of ASAP...so on ward and upward.
I've decided Im open to dating, and open to a new relationship, but Im not actively looking. Right now Im enjoying just being me, and being a mom, and thinking of what I now want to do with my life.
For starters....a new career! Im thinking life coach.....but maybe after I get my life a little more straightened out. I really would like to help people help themselves.
What snodderly said keeps running through my mind, that the MLCers expect us to stay right where they left us. Im really beginning to feel that way based on his actions. Gosh...always on their terms!
