The Emancipation of Abby
It has been a hectic few weeks around this place, to say the least. I'm no longer moving to the GTA (old news for most of you), which means slowly unpacking our stuff as well as fixing all the stupid little things around here we weren't going to bother with when we thought we were leaving (things like painting over those dreadful prison grey-blue walls). The place is still in a state of unfinishedness but at least we've made a dent in it.
On to the topic which the subject implied - the end of a marriage.
Just before Tara left for the tiny village of Coboconk we filed for divorce. While she was here for Em's graduation out of Elementary and into the realm of Junior High, we began stage two of the proceedings. This was on Wednesday the 27th. This past week, I received an envelope in the mail in my own handwriting - The divorce order. It was issued on the 29th, and takes effect 31 days later. Meaning my ties to Tara are now legally limited to the custody of Emily. I have been emancipated.
