Been a while since any updates. I will most likely be signing the final D papers at the end of the week or first of the following week.

This upcoming week will be final move-out week for STBX. She has been living elsewhere for 10+ weeks but most of her stuff is still here.

It's been quite a ride. Generally unpleasant, both due to my doing and hers. With the help of IC, family, a couple good friends I have accepted the consequences and continue moving forward. I don't like it. I don't want the marriage and family to break up. But I accept that it has/is/will.

The future promises neither good nor bad, but arrive with both good and bad in it. I take comfort in knowing I can move forward with more strength, patience, kindness, and compassion...and more tools in the toolbox than I had at this time last year.
