I still live in the "marital residence". It's been one year of me and just the kiddos. STBX doesn't see them often. The new man in my life is still wonderful. His parents just bought him a mini-van so he could see me with more ease and so we could go more places with all the kids. We have 5 kids altogether. It's a great time when we do things. I love the van - I saw it last night. I'm so excited. I have to pay off STBX's lawyer in order to get the divorce. I'll get to that at some point. And if I don't, the two year seperation mark is 9/9/06. In PA, you can be seperated for 2 years and get a divorce without needing the other party. And so much paperwork has been filed so far that it makes that all the easier. I'm winging it. Yeah I would like to be officially divorced. But I don't have the $300 right now to pay her off, and I know that STBX won't do it.


I have a new job. I'm in my own office, well sorta my own when I'm not sharing it with Sean. I work 40 hours a week. I have weekends off. The pay is the best I've had since being on my own. Ok, it's the best I've had ever. It's not more than I've seen my STBX make. But it is enough for now. Christmas is coming - I'm starting to plan for that now. I don't want to be stressed out the night before Christmas. That doesn't sound like much fun.


I'm in love. And it's a nice feeling. And I rather like it. It feels like a healthy love. The kind where you can put your whole heart into it and feel the trust and respect running like a current both ways. We compliment each other as individuals in the relationship and I'd like to think we're rather compatible.
