Well, at least that is what I thought. As it turns out, just like much everything else that Sandy thinks about now, my not getting the paperwork done in a manner that she considers timely is a personal attack against her by me.
She told me that "my lack of honor in the matter adds heartbreak on top of a broken heart". Isn't that a great way to start off conversation?
Yeah, it was like that.
I am not trying to say that I am above criticism, because I am not. I have my fair share of faults and I also make quite a few errors in the process. I don't think any of the challenges that I currently face get me off the hook for my responsibilities. I have a lot of stuff to deal with that is not obvious to Sandy and at this point there's really no reason why she would care, provided my support check is not late :-)
As I mentioned before, business has been challenging. No, I take that back -- business has been horrible! There have been a number of significant changes and none of them have been good. Most of the time, it feels like I am drowning with all of the demands that I face. It's not like I sit around the office all day and invent new ways to waste my time or plan my next vacation.
Part of what Sally had been complaining about was a legitimate complaint. So I decided that I was going to use today is the day to complete the paperwork that I needed to complete the move things forward. Now that I'm at the end of the day, I can look back and say that the next hurdle has been cleared. The paperwork is done and has been sent to the appropriate parties.
This is not the end of the paperwork, by any stretch of the imagination. It seems that there is a lot more to do, but I know now that we are closer to having a final dissolution than we have been a long time. Having some closure on this matter I think will be good for both of us.
I sure hope this gets finished up quickly...
