Thanks so much! Hey, I just realised the edit button came back - yay!! It has been on an adventure maybe??
Well, I'm still rather croaky and creaky, but slowly recovering. I had a busy start to the week, which set me back. Today I received the Decree Nisi from the court. I was okay, but it was a bit of a stinger to read that the judge deemed my behaviour has been such that our M has irretrievably broken down and H couldn't reasonably be expected to continue in the M - ouch...in all circumstances! But, as they say, the bar for unreasonable behaviour is low and that's just a court letter. Plus, I decided not to file, so this is the consequence, and this is better then me having ended the M. It would have been nicer to D on a no-fault basis, but H was unwilling to wait....oh well. I feel balanced and rational about it all anyway.
I went out with my D support group on Tues & had a nice time. One of the girls had been through a DREADFUL time with her STBX since Xmas. I won't post details, but it made my H (and many others here) look terribly decent. I tell you, it could be a lot worse, and for that I am grateful. Got myself onto a mailing list for a regular walking group (new GAL!) and also got invited out for drinks in a couple of weeks. Various outings with friends at the weekend, so pretty busy and nice - I just need to get fully recovered from this bug & firing on all cylinders.
It will be six weeks until H can finalise our D, but I think we need financials all agreed before then. No word from the L on that as yet.
Hope everyone is having a good week xx

We receive & we lose, and must try to achieve gratitude & embrace with whole hearts whatever of life that remains after the losses - Dubus
