One more step

Last week, HB and I finalized our decisions about our divorce decree agreement. Consequently, on Monday, I printed it out, proofed it one more time, signed it in front of a notary, and sent it by 2-day FedEx letter to him.

He received it, looked it over one more time, signed it in front of a notary, and filed it with our county court yesterday (Friday, 23rd) in MN.

At the end of that sentence, I sighed inadvertently.

Now, we wait for the judge to get around to making a decision on it. Could be 2 weeks, could be 3-6 weeks.

Once he signs it, we will be officially divorced.

I, as you might imagine, have mixed feelings about being at this stage. Part of me is glad to have everything almost finalized; part of me is still sad about the breakdown of our relationship. My feelings sort of ebb and flow; I say that, because it doesn’t feel quite right to refer to it as a rollercoaster or some sort of up and down analogy.

So, there you have it. The latest update on our process.

I have had happy stuff going on this week, and I’ll write about it more soon.

    I’m glad you have happy stuff to even out the mixed emotions of your divorce. I’m sure it is a very difficult time, and hope it gets better. When school starts, you won’t have time to process it, so maybe dealing with it now is a good thing?

    Yeah. I think that the timing is good.

    We aimed for this timing for other reasons, but that is also a big plus.
