P.S. I'm Divorced

Yeah, I'm officially single and have been for over 2 months.


Apparently the court dudes don't call you or mail you a letter to let you know when your divorce is final. They just expect you to check in with them.


WTF?

I'm sorry that you've had to go through all this. I hope it's getting a little better for you.

And I agree, WTF Court?! A letter seems the least that they could do.

{{{Sending you loads of hugs}}}

Nana said...

LAME!!!! I got a letter. I'll send you a letter. It will say:

Dear Pooba,
The happiest day of your life has arrived. You just lost 200? lbs. You are free as a bird. You are beautiful so, watch out for all the weird men.
Albert is a turd!!!!!!!

You are now free to go buy those shoes you want.

Love, Judge Nana

THE Stephanie said...

Wow. I'd think they'd at least send you some legal document. Crazy!

Julia said...

Well now you know. Laughing... Isn't that the way it is with ALL government agencies. Except for the IRS!!!!

Unknown said...

hmmm, i would think at some point you would get a copy of the signed court documented papers...

at any rate...{hugs}

Suzi said...

Government officials do the least amount of work possible! Hope you are doing well.

First step towards the future you desire. ((hugs))

I think Nana's letter sums it up. But that really IS lame. The court never forgets to tell me when I owe them money for all the lame tickets I get, but you legally separate from your spouse and -- nothin? Not cool.

Sara said...

I think of you often. (((BIG HUGS))) and WTF court. I was birddogging the mail for the court paper stating I no longer had custody of my sister. Gotta follow up on those things. Courts suck. They never told me when I didn't have custody.

Kristina P. said...

I don't know if I should say I'm sorry, or congrats, so I will say both.

Unknown said...

I say congrats on your new single lady-ness! May you meet many many hot men and have lots of fun!

brokenteepee said...

That is somewhat idiotic.
Look forward. You will get what you want.

Brian Miller said...

smiles.

sorry you had to go through with this...but hope you find even greater happiness...

Unknown said...

Now on with the fun stuff! The rest of your life. So sorry you had to go through it though. And the courts suck!

Megan said...

That is pretty lame that they couldn't even let you know. Jeez!

I think I'll say I'm sorry (((HUGS))) and Congrats **high five** but I don't know which one is better.

Liz Mays said...

WHAT? You've been divorced officially for 2 months???

It took mine 4.5 to get through the system. Geez!

I hope you're ok. Are you ok?

Michelle said...

Ditto what Nana said!

She is a freakin' beast that woman is. And so are you!!!!

Sarah said...

"Cheers" to a happy future!

Anonymous social worker said...

Sh*t gurl. I didn't even know, but then I read your bio to find out more. I'm so sorry.
:(
But I think you did the right thing.
Wanting children is a very strong subject.

BTW: I'm single.

Who am I to argue with Judge Nana? Going with what she said! Muah! It's time for a new season! Yay for you!

Eve said...

What??? Oh my gosh... I've been out of touch with blog land for much longer than I thought.

What has happened?

Hang in there (((HUGS)))!!! It can only get better from this point on.

Christine Macdonald said...

I applaud your bravery. Freedom is calling. xxoo

Karin Katherine said...

Well, you didn't really want a big fan fare anyway. Sorry. I'm still hoping he comes to his cotton pickin' senses.

Queenie Jeannie said...

God way overdid it on the stoopid men. Just sayin.

You are abundantly loved and you have me as a sorta Big Sis. It will be OK; we're tough broads!
