It's been official for a whole week!

Last Monday at 1:45pm my marriage to Chase was officially over! It has been a very long 6 months, but it is now a done deal, no looking back. It is time to look forward and move on, for the girls sake and for my own. It is weird having been married for so long, and now to be SINGLE again. I am amazed at how things have changed over the past 12 years. I have never really though about what single moms go thru, until now. It is hard, a constant juggling act. You have to make time for everything, and you put yourself last every time. There is not anymore me time, except for when Chase has the girls. But even then I tend to work on the house and laundry and grocery shopping.

I have been reflecting on what it is that I want in life, and i have a mental list that I keep. It is gonna be an interesting adventure, I just hope that I am up for the ride! This past week has been a tough one. My emotions have been a roller coaster, with all of the ups and downs, happy to sad in 2 seconds flat. the girls are doing well, but I have them signed up to start counseling next week. They are needing to talk to someone, and I have found a girl from Harding that works really well with children. I think she is just what we need, and she will help the girls to deal with all of their stress that has come from the divorce.

Hopefully all of you reading are having a great week! Thnk you for your thoughts and prayers!
