I have learned more than I ever wanted to know about the injustice of our legal system. Don't even get me started on what it takes to prove adultery in the state of Virginia. But after several dicey talks Mr. Wrong and I hammered out the property settlement, he signed the waivers and today I give my deposition. Yes, my name is Karen. Yes, I want a divorce. Yes, my husband committed adultery.
After all of this I'm getting past the hurt and am looking forward to it finally being over. Of course this might have something to do with filing my income taxes as "Single, Head of Household" and not having to claim my child support but who knows. So, after 10 years of marriage and 4 children, it only takes a couple of signatures to wipe the marriage away. I waiver between being grateful it's so easy and angry that he gets away so easily. Until I remember he doesn't feel a sense of responsibility to me or the kids. Mr. Wrong figures he can write a check, show up every other weekend and buy them lots of things. That may work now but it won't work for long. Sooner or later the kids will take a real look at their dad and all he's done and he won't be able to talk his way out of this one.
Seriously, two more weeks and I'm officially a Ms.
