Divorce Diaries (Part 21: When People Congratulate You for Your Divorce… Thanks??)

September 29, 2025

          There are a lot of things I might not understand. Sometimes I take things as signs, and sometimes I’m just left pondering and second guessing everything. Usually when people find out that you’re getting a divorce they say things like: “I’m so sorry” or “I’m so sorry to hear that.” But not in this … More Divorce Diaries (Part 21: When People Congratulate You for Your Divorce… Thanks??)

Divorce Diaries (Part 20: When the Haunting Dreams Emerge)

August 31, 2025

          I don’t know if most people can relate to this, but maybe you can if you’re a person who tends to dream vivid dreams every night. A lot of people can’t remember their dreams, and it’s very seldom when they mention a dream that they have had, whereas I’ve been the type of person … More Divorce Diaries (Part 20: When the Haunting Dreams Emerge)

Divorce Diaries (Part 19: When 2 months ago feels like Years ago.)

August 21, 2025

          This process has been interesting to say the least. It’s been 7 to 8 weeks since the move and oddly enough, it feels like it was so long ago. You know that weird feeling when you think back to your adolescent relationships and it was so long ago that it almost feels like it … More Divorce Diaries (Part 19: When 2 months ago feels like Years ago.)

Divorce Diaries (Part 18: Feeling Two Things at Once)

August 3, 2025

          Feeling two things at once is an interesting feeling. You go from wanting to keep your distance but wanting to make sure that they’re taking care of themselves. You go from feeling a sense of hostility, to worrying about them. The love doesn’t stop just because you’re feeling resentful, frustrated, or upset, and I … More Divorce Diaries (Part 18: Feeling Two Things at Once)

Divorce Diaries (Part 17: Just Breathe, Shake it Off and Keep Moving Forward)

July 17, 2025

          This week’s post will be fairly short. I was going to skip this week, but since I skipped the first Thursday after the move, I decided to go ahead and give another weekly update. I will say not much has changed since my last post. I’ve still been adjusting, trying to figure out what’s … More Divorce Diaries (Part 17: Just Breathe, Shake it Off and Keep Moving Forward)

Divorce Diaries (Pt 14: Physically Separated. Finally living apart…)

June 19, 2025

          I’ve been thinking about how things were going to be during this time since January, and now that the time has come, it’s been interesting to say the least. It has been a few days since my soon-to-be ex-husband started sleeping at his new place and the emotions have been quite magenta (in the … More Divorce Diaries (Pt 14: Physically Separated. Finally living apart…)

Divorce Diaries (Part 11: Trying Something New to aid in my Healing Process)

May 29, 2025

          Next month is going to be a busy month, and I’m already looking forward to July. I like to try to document my journey every Thursday, but it’s getting harder. There’s just so much to do. It’s been a busy month, and next month it will be busier. If only I was a minimalist, … More Divorce Diaries (Part 11: Trying Something New to aid in my Healing Process)

Divorce Diaries (Part 9: The Mental Floating Zone of Protection… Detaching.)

May 8, 2025

          I think I entered a new phase of this journey a couple of weeks ago, and I’m not even sure what to call this phase. After I mentioned letting go in my last post, I thought I finally came into acceptance of a lot of things. I didn’t want to let go of the … More Divorce Diaries (Part 9: The Mental Floating Zone of Protection… Detaching.)

Divorce Diaries (Part 7: Trying to Find Energy when I Feel Completely Drained…)

April 17, 2025

          It’s amazing how you go through multiple phases throughout the divorce journey. I feel like I’ve hit the no energy phase, or maybe it’s just a deeper form of depression. Extreme fatigue is a usual symptom of mine when I fall into depression, but I don’t know why it feels different this time. Maybe … More Divorce Diaries (Part 7: Trying to Find Energy when I Feel Completely Drained…)

Divorce Diaries (Part 6: Separated but Living Under the Same Roof. The Silence is Deafening!)

April 6, 2025

          Being separated is one thing, but being separated under the same four walls is another story. There’s nothing more of a mind-fuck than seeing the shell of the person you once knew walk by you every day. There’s little to no speaking. Most days it’s a 1 to 5 words limit. One day it … More Divorce Diaries (Part 6: Separated but Living Under the Same Roof. The Silence is Deafening!)
