no title - just Tuesday

So as evidenced from some of my photos yesterday - things were on my side for once. 

I finally have a settlement. It is entered into court later this week. 

THIS WEEK I WILL BE DIVORCED.

If we aren’t FB friends, you missed the status update I posted that essentially said that SS (Dan) and I were able to part with tears and a hug.

We actually hugged outside of the lawyer’s office.

It truly was a defining moment in my life. And it’s one I will never forget  It’s a lot like the first kiss of being married. It was that significant. Maybe even more so.

I’ll spare the other details of the day; suffice to say it was rife with stress and some arguing and negotiations. My lawyer wasn’t entirely happy but I wasn’t there to please him. 

He was sure a court trial on several issues would have seen me through to a lot different outcome but in the end… yes, I gave up a lot. Yes, I could of held out for more. Yes… I was owed a lot of money.

But what is the price of happiness? 

I am content. I think i will be ok. 

That is my hope.
