Good news
AH has finally agreed to the settlement agreement and I can file for divorce! I had to give over my car to get his agreement but since his car is a piece of garbage on its last legs and I was gonna trade in my car anyway, I decided to be nice and give it to him. It was worth it to get this finalized. I bought myself a 2005 Sonata that only has 11000 miles on it for a great price. I like my "new" car.

And AH is filing for bankruptcy which stops the forecloure action on the house for a while at any rate. With any luck, the house will sell before they proceed with the foreclosure.

It beginning to feel like the end is in sight. I figure I should be divorced by the end of May at the latest. The only tie will be the house while its up for sale and I don't have to communicate with him on that since all real info comes from the realtor. Its gonna be a wonderful feeling to have all those ties severed. Emotionally it was done long ago but now the legal entanglements will also be gone. Life is good!

I like the idea that you let go of an old junker in exchange for a new, more reliable model. Oh, and the car is a good thing, too.

It is indeed exciting in oh so many ways. I'm so lucky to have this opportunity to redefine myself and figure out what I'm gonna be when I grow up.
