I'm glad you're doing ok. Why are you having second thoughts on mulching the yard? Because of the papers? IMO keep your plans.

Also about the papers, don't you have to answer in 30days? I don't know I'm not a L but I assume you need some kind of a response. Does your W retained a L? How many kids do you have under 18? It will probably help the boards if you put some info on your signature line.

IMO you need to get a lot of info in the D process just for you so you don't get blindsided especially if she has a L. I think you have some time and can consult 2-3 L to get different opinions, their initial consultation is free at least in my state. Good luck to you Kenva hopefully some of the vets will chime in.
