Melancholy...
I'm posting this here because I don't really think this fits on my Facebook page since I have professional contacts who follow me, but I feel compelled to write this out:
I'm working through a divorce, apparently my future ex-husband didn't think he could stick to his wedding-day promises (love, honor and cherish through sickness and health, etc, until death do us part...). Faced with his statement 'I don't love you enough to push you around in a wheelchair' and my declining health which surely means I will eventually need someone to do exactly that, I had no choice to say that I couldn't uphold my promises either.
I mean, who the fuck says that after asking for a divorce in an email? I have no clue who he is anymore...
So, I hired an attorney and I'm working on making the move back to Virginia. I'm grateful my boss worked out a way for me to work remotely (no one else in Escalations is doing that) because now I don't have to look for another job and can move in with my sister, which will save me a lot and get me close to mom (who is having her own health issues).
Yet, even though I hate Florida, I do have our kids and my friends I don't want to leave behind.
I'm not sure I really understood the term 'melancholy' before now, at least not on a basic level, I think I'm living eye-brow deep in melancholia now.
