So saw my attorney today who finished the divorce papers and is going


Posted: Jun 8, 2011

to file by the end of the week.  I asked my attorney about me moving out and he said it makes no difference if I live in the house or not, I still own the house and will get at least half if we sell after the past due taxes are paid.  So that's good news.  Now I'm off to look at the apartment down the road.  I feel so upbeat today.  Like I'm getting stuff accomplished and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Thanks to everyone for your good advice and encouraging words!

I remember the day I filed for divorce and moved to a new apartment. I felt like I had a fresh start and the world just seemed brighter. It won't be easy, but taking the first step is HUGE. Proud of you!!

I hope the apartment was fantastic and you and your daughter are starting out a happy new journey together. It has taken a lot of courage to take the steps you have already taken. Hang in there and stay strong. I'll be thinking of you.

Just think-peace and quiet, no lump on the couch to be angry and resentful at, that first night of really good sleep.

Here's to brighter days!

Budget Divorce Kits - Are They For Real? Can You Really Do Your Own Divorce?May 18, 2012
I have needed to file for divorce for three years, but cannot afford to hire an attorney.  I've called around and have found that an uncontested divorce will cost $1200 through an attorney which I simply cannot afford.  Not to mention, my (hopefully soon to be) ex-husband will definitely contest everything and that will drive up attorney fees which is why I never considered budget divorce in the past because I knew my ex and I would never agree on anything.  However, I have s ...

He Isn't Finished Yet - President Obama Vows ToJun 27, 2015
President Obama isn’t going to sit back and enjoy his administration’s victory. Obama is looking to expand the reach of the law by getting more people covered.

The administration has been quietly at work trying to persuade those states that haven’t expanded Medicaid to do so. The President can use the platform of the presidency to aggressively promote the law. The ...

For Those Of You Who Have Gone Through A Divorce....smOct 29, 2009
Do you know what happens when your spouse does not answer to the divorce petition after the 20 days are up (you have 20 days to respond in my state).  My soon to be ex hasn't responded to it yet and Monday the 20 days will be up.  Have any of you gotten temporary spousal support while the divorce is pending?  He is not helping me out financially and I can't pay all the bills on my own.  This is the most stressful thing ever! ...

I want a divorce from my husband but am so scared regarding finances that it's preventing me from doing it.  We've been married 18 years, 2 teenage children, nice home.  He makes good money and carries the health insurance.  I've been doing this for 10+ years.  He is a drinker and I think he is an alcoholic.  He's never been physically violent with us, but he does scream and bitch about whatever pops into his drunken mind, and just randomly comes up w ...

Divorce Questions, Advice AppreciatedJan 15, 2012
I will be married 32 years next month and never seriously considered divorcing my husband although in the past we did talk about it a couple times during rough times.  I thought we came through everything and had a stable and successful marriage.  However, my husband has interests I don't share, such as drinking, partying, poker, hanging out with his friends, etc.  Over time I came to accept and expect that and just figured he had a bit of a Peter Pan syndrome where he never ...
