Single, but dealing...

Here I go, I am heading into the world of singledom and am scared beyond belief. For those of you who don't know my husband and I recently split and are getting a divorce. You can find out more about my life prior to this by visiting parenthood-journey.blogspot.com.

I have been alone now for about 3 weeks and I am starting to get used to it-kinda. My house is so empty; I do have my dogs for comfort, but it just isn't full with life anymore. I am trying to be strong, but at times I let my guard down and my tears are overflowing.

Andrew (my soon to be ex) says he can't wait until the divorce is over so he won't have to talk to me. These are hurtful words and I am not sure I know what I did to him that would make him feel that way. He has no answers for me, so I may never know. We had been together for 4 years and he acts as though our relationship never exsisted.

I am going to counseling once a week and it is helping a lot. She gives me little assignments to do before the next session. This week I am supposed to be thinking about what kind of career I would like that would make me happy and be able to pay the bills.

On a brighter note, I have joined a group at church called First Place 4 Health. It is a weight loss program, but not only do you focus on weight loss, but also how to become a better person spiritually, emotionally, mentally and physically. I start next Monday and am looking forward to meeting new people at the church. I haven't been going for too long and don't really know many of the members. All in all it should be a fun time for some girl talk.

Hope everything is going good for everyone. Enjoy the rest of the summer, because before you know it, fall is here!
