Hi all,

After 24 years and 11 months I am now divorced. Surprisingly for the first time in 50 years I am alone (not an island, but rather by myself) for the first time ever. I am blessed with friends and family (biological and those I have invited or been invited into that special place), and have the luxury of time to continue rebuilding my life.

My ex actually argued with the judge, and he stated, if you do not like what is happening, do not agree to the settlement, I am more than willing to divide everything in accordance to the law, and put the child into state custody until your husband (me) and your child's relationship is verified and give him sole custody. As it is, she keeps him for the lion share of time, at least until we have several joint therapy sessions with me as who I am .... Mind you he sees me every other week as me, well except for my makeup and wig, or skirts .... so I do not see what the issue is, and nor does he. My goodness I have breasts and look more girl/woman than male.

I must say my tastes in clothing continue to evolve, now I am not only into elegant pants and blouses/sweater outfits, but express skirts ... where will it end? I know, Thailand. I cannot wait.

I would have thought my emotions would have been more relief than anything, but there are equal amounts of pain and sorrow interwoven today. I had a great cry, and fell asleep holding a stuffed animal. I woke up and he was wet so I know I continued to cry after I fell asleep.

Thanks for all the support you have given me.
