Merry Christmas to you and your son, as well as your fur babies.
I am not the least bit surprised that your h stalled on the divorce papers. Many of them seem to do this.
He reminds me so much of my xh, i.e., the flower situation. They either don't remember or hope that we will discover that there is a third person in the mix. Sometimes I tend to sway toward us finding out and finishing up the dirty work of a divorce so that they can say we were the ones that filed. Whatever the reason, I'm glad you let him know about it.
Your son is an amazing young man and is growing up very quickly and it won't be long before his interests and hobbies will be done independently and you will be there observing on the sidelines. As for new hobbies, etc., I know you won't be sitting very long and will find things of interest to do.
You've come a long way and have done an amazing job of raising your son and being patient w/your runaway. May the new year bring you many wonderful surprises throughout the year.
Hugs and best wishes to you and your little family.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
