So yesterday I went to the courthouse and filed the D papers then went to the post office and mailed them off to W. I emailed her later in the evening to let her know. I didn't want the papers to arrive unexpectedly. She didn't reply to that email, nor to the previous one asking for her address and bank info, although she did leave me that info at the house when she visited the dog.

So, now it's just a waiting game.

I told a couple of close friends, my father, and the prof that I had filed. They all asked how I was doing, and I told them, truthfully, that I thought I was doing okay. There was no rush of emotion. It felt procedural and anticlimactic. That said I am glad that I am talking with the IC tomorrow. I don't want to hide from any feelings that may arise.
