Finalize my divorce.
still working on this 1 week ago

I left my husband in 2007.
I have been struggling to get my lawyer to take my case seriously.
Paperwork SHOULD have been done up May 2009. Lawyer told me in August 2009 that he didn’t realize he was required to do it and suggested I do the paperwork myself, despite admiting that since my ex was such a jerk over and over and made things so difficult over and over that I would need a lawyer to complete it.
The agreement all 4 of us had was that MY LAWYER was to do the paperwork.
Still waiting for the papers to be filed. Every contact with my lawyer is that he only needs “one more thing” and then he can file… its been over a month since the last promise and the papers are still unfiled.
I have now had to write to the senior partner above him regarding how he has not treated me or my concerns in a professional or respectful way.



Get my nose pierced.
Untitled 1 month ago

This was my “freedom” gift to myself for getting out of a negative and abusive marriage, a form of taking back a bit of myself and doing what I need to do to be more authentically ME.



create a home altar
I made a bedroom altar 3 months ago

I am working on doing this, as time goes on. I have made an altar in my bedroom, and I have started to set aside space for each of my children to create altars, if they want, in their own rooms. But as for putting things in a centralized location, I’m still not so sure about that. I don’t like to be all “OUT THERE” with my beliefs, and I don’t like the idea of the cats knocking things over in the living room, or of friends’ of the kids touching or knocking over altar items that might be in plain site. The boyfriend’s daughter already took it upon herself to touch things on my personal altar and destroy a set of Pagan Prayer Beads that I had made and left on my altar.

I may modify this to be more about having a personal altar SOMEWEHRE In my home.
