A full and productive day

While my medical stuff is still waiting for the draining to slow way down, I feel really great.

Last night my prospective landlady, Pam, finally made it to my place and checked out the boys and the dog. She provided my credit report to me, and told me that I had the best credit she'd ever seen in her life.

Today Marshall and I met with a therapist for the boys, he seems appropriate and kind. Heshy will begin seeing him next Wednesday, and Avi soon after. I'm really glad to have that piece checked off on my list.

Then Marshall and I met with a divorce mediator, and we breezed through that meeting. We had already discussed almost everything that needed deciding, so it was mostly a matter of telling the mediator about those decisions. It's amazing how easy it was, and not really very time-consuming. There are forms we need to fill out, she'll be filing court papers on our behalf, and after the next meeting, sometime in June, we'll only need to wait the obligatory 6 months until the divorce is final. The savings, in both time and money, is incredible.

I feel as if a big weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Now I can concentrate on setting up my new household and helping the boys process all of this mess.
