Hello guys.
I guess I'm writing basically because, I'd like to humbly ask for some prayers if I may. My divorce situation (while easy -- there's no kids), is starting to get sticky.
To keep it short: he left me 3 years ago--we looked for him (thought something terrible had happened)--then a gal comes later on and starts filling me in (turns out to be the mother of his kid), and tries to arrange a divorce through him--last December, he finally emails me and says he'll get things started (which he should have anyway since it took -him- 3 years...)--I go with it--2 1/2 -- 3 months tick by and I hear nothing--so I write him and ask whats up and he says things have been crazy yada yada, okay, giving him benefit of doubt.
Over the summer, I get do-it-yourself papers to find out just how much junk goes into it and my dad and I have both been to a lawyer to try and figure it out and he didn't seem like he wanted help to both dad and I. Now, my husband is sending me annoying emails asking me where they are (after I got his address out of him), since he's been 'waiting 2 weeks.' Today, I got an email from him asking me what's going on since it's apparently been 'a month now,' and is subtly seems to be threatening -me- w/ more legal action (although I don't know what he could do, since I have more than enough evidence on him to prove abandonment etc...).
So, that's it in a nutshell. I've been trying so very hard to just ignore his childish immaturity and stay strong, but that seems so much harder than it is. I know I need to get this done (and believe me I DO want to get it done!), but I haven't found anyone who is willing enough to just sit down with me and help me fill this out (and Legal Aid won't help me--I've already tried and they only take domestic abuse cases apparently).
I don't know what to do. I guess I'm asking for prayers to find some help so I can get this junk done. I am so angry, so frustrated and so stressed over this that I am unsure of what to do. I know I shouldn't be angry or afraid, but given the situation, I am finding that to be a lot easier said than done.
The only real bright spot the last few weeks or so for me has been the beginning of my catechumen classes on 11/12. I'm going to be made an 'official' catechumen on 11/29 (I have to work this coming Sunday). I'm both excited and nervous all in one but so very happy.
My patron is going to be St. Michael the Archangel (He seemed to have chosen me!). I've been praying to him for awhile now, and as I am thinking of this situation in particular, I am thinking about him a lot (in fact, he immediately came to mind when I read that email).
I sure hope that this entire situation w/ him doesn't ruin or knock me from my path and journey.
Thank you for listening me ramble...and praise God for all of his wonderous blessings.
