Yesterday was a good day. I had my 2nd status confrence for my divorce yesterday. Though I knew it already, our court facilitator confirmed he never filed his response to his service. Yay! In the end, that just makes things a heck of a lot easier for me. I don't have to have him sign the papers. I don't have to confirm things with him. And, he will be excluded from our temp & final orders hearings. Woo-hoo! It was awsome. And, of course he had some lame excuse but oh well, that stuff doesn't fly in court. Even better, he could have called in for the status confrence as he's allowed to participate in those but he never called for that either! Ha, ha. Sucker.
When I was a little girl, I used to LOVE painting. I started experimenting w/ water and oil paints. I loved it (but I always hated what I did). Eventually, a social life took over and it went on the back burner. As a married adult, it was something I wanted to start getting into again. It wasn't an option. I was belittled about my intrest and criticized about my wanting to put in effort. It was, "a waste of time and money." So, for a long time, I gave up that part of me. Well, there is this beautiful gallery downtown not far from the courthouse. And, as I decided within the last few weeks painting is something I want to take back for me, I went to the gallery after court. It was kind of a symbolic thing. I was amazed. I found an artist I adore. I painting I fell in love with. It was just inspirational and made me feel fantastic. I spent about an hour there, just wandering. What suprised me is how that good feeling stuck with me the rest of the night. It was amazing really. I talked about it all night with anyone who would listen! lol It was a really good day for me. I needed that.
