My MIP family:

I felt those virtual hugs this morning before leaving for the courthouse; one of my very best friends from my childhood was right there with me (I told her this is the follow up to being my bridesmaid in 1991--haha), and it is surreal, but it's done and I am at least for now, ok!  It was a little tough to hear the marriage sketched out...date and place of, number of children, names etc and also not so easy to hear the phrase 'irretrievably broken' about a thousand times!

My XH  was sort of a mess; I truly believe he doesn't have a concept of how we ended up there today.  It was hard to see; but also clear to see, if that makes any kind of sense.

I have my maiden name back, I am in the process of getting the house put in my name, I feel that I am still stepping and I know that a little over a year ago as my life was changing it was also being saved by this program and all of you with me.

To come back here this afternoon and see all of the posts from you; my heart is full and I thank you all so much.

(((((MIP)))))

Mary

Hugs Mary. Glad to hear that step is finally over.

Had to laugh about calling your bridesmaid into service for you, so to speak. Yes, it wasn't bad enough that we put our very best friends in the world in the most hideous dresses for our big day! The bridesmaids job is never done! (And lucky for you that she is still in your life).

Take good care of yourself.

We separated from our guys at about the same time. I remember reading your posts during that uncertain time when you had decided to separate but before he left. I admire how you made up your mind about what you had to do and moved forward and didn't get all sidetracked like I've done. :)
