Stuck In Time! (I Would Have Called it Frozen, but This is no Disney Tale!)

Still not divorced with no end in sight! Everything has come to a complete standstill. My hopefully soon to be ex started all of this and it is because of him that everything has come to a halt. Not surprised actually, he is a control freak and I'm sure this is his way of being controlling. Everything my attorney asks for is ignored and everything my hopefully soon to be ex asks for is completed due to my having picked the nice attorney.  Or is it because I am the woman and the old boy network we have hired expects it of me?

Like next week I am going to see a court ordered vocational counselor. I have been out of the job market for 27 years, who on earth would hire me? He is requesting this because after all of my years of servitude he doesn't want to pay me alimony. In his out of touch world he actually thinks I am hirable. I wish that I was, I had a career I loved and I gave it up. I should have had my head examined. 

Every choice in our lives, he chose, where we lived, our furniture even the dishes. He will have a surprise as this experience draws to a close he will also have to pay me for all of our stuff that he chose!

I'm sorry this post has no humor in it, I feel like I am starting to lose it! But I still enjoy fashion and here is my latest blog about Paris Haute Couture week, I can dream can't I?

My Theory of Everything!

A new year, another chance to start over. I only hope this one will be happier for my son. His father has stopped responding to my texts or emails that I send only when it is something important and that I am legally obligated to let him know. After all he is still his father even though he doesn't act like it. He is acting like a man without any responsibilities, how am I supposed to co-parent under these circumstances? 

Now to add to my son's depression his dad wasn't even in town for the holidays. Doesn't he realize what he is doing to his child? Does he even care? How can some people put their own happiness before their child's? I put my son's needs before my own. I brought him into this world and I am going to take care of him until he is grown and on his own. I only hope he will grow into a happier man. 

I think my hopefully soon to be ex is probably mad because the court ordered him to pay alimony. I gave up my life and my career to help him with his career, and I know he doesn't feel my life was worth anything. After 30 years I was so easily replaced by someone almost half my age. 

I was thinking about the movie "The Theory of Everything". Would our understanding of the universe have been forever changed if Stephen had been Stephanie? Would a man have been as supportive of a brilliant disabled female physicist? Even from his wheelchair and without a voice of his own Stephen Hawking left his wife of 30 years for the nurse he met while he was hospitalized. Really? I guess I shouldn't feel too bad about being replaced.

January seems a good time to start linking my other blog: My Cheap Fashion Fix, with hopes of giving more information on fashion and deals!
