forgive me

Forgive me, kind readers, for my lack of commentary on your blogs. This last week or so has found me paralyzed with fear over my upcoming divorce court date (this Wednesday, to be exact.) For what has been an amicable and fluid arrangement in parenting on both parts, could very well turn hostile and petty on Wednesday should either party find themselves on the wrong side of the judge.

My husband and I have a fairly unorthodox arrangement regarding the custody of our children, yet we have found over the last two years of separation that it works for all of us. For the most part, we want to be left alone to manage the arrangement as we see fit, with no oversight by the court. However, in the 11th hour, I am beginning to panic. We did not retain attorneys and have drawn up the agreements on our own. For lack of a better term, I'm scared I am going to be thrown under the bus by my ex.

So, blah blah blah about my problems. Nothing really is that important in the great scheme of things. I continue to read you all and am grateful for everyone's words of wisdom and insight. And I guess insight is wisdom, yes?

I will be back to random ramblings on Thursday.

I'll be thinking about you this week! These situations are never pleasant, but I wish for you that your transition is as stress-free and seamless as possible.

Isn't it great when we shrug off the agents and the hangers on and do business face to face, one on one?
That's how I like to do business - but there is an element of trust - let's hope your trust is returned.

Hey girl--

Sending comfort and healing thoughts to you.
The nature of this particular beast bears minding. Nothing wrong with your being anxious about it. Just don't let it paralyze you...remember: It will all be okay in the end. If it's not okay--it's not the end.

Kristin, I'm thinking of you. Hopefully it all turned out just fine. Divorce is, I think, the hardest thing I've ever been through. Getting through it, and over it, turned out to be a long process. A day at a time. xo
