The annulment has been final for over a month now. Did I mention it was granted by Alan's request and was based on financial fraud? He claimed I married him only for money. As if. Everyone who truly knows me knows that I am not financially motivated. I married that freak show purely for love, and his hands that have warmed me, and soothed me when I was awaiting surgery for herniated discs in my neck. May I remind, you, gentle reader, that I did not go to court, so I can't complain about anything. I will say, however, that nowhere in the documents was it stated that I want to return to my maiden name?
I heard from Alan's lawyer, and I have to write my own letter to the judge asking to change my name. All I have to do is write a letter, and I haven't done it yet. I was off work tonight, and chose to spend the evening with Grams. I took her to DQ for a Blizzard, and she cried the whole way home, thanking me for getting her out. I love her so very much.
Tomorrow is April First! April Fool's! I have mentioned to my niece and nephew that I will be stopping by tomorrow to bring them Sponge Cake. I have actually frosted two sponges, covered them in sprinkles, and will swing by after school tomorrow to see the looks on their faces when they try to cut off a piece of it. I will try to get video of that!
My dogs are living on the edge these days -I live on a Main Street now,and they are always on high alert as others walk by with their dogs. There are teenage drinkers that sit on the concrete wall late at night, and I have another neighbor that calls the police, so I'm not too terribly worried.
The neighbor. She's probably in her 60's, and retired. She's pretty funny, but is generally over here a few times a day when I'm putting the dogs out. It doesn't matter if I'm in my jammies at 7am, or it's 3:45 and I have to be at work by 4, she will stand there explaining any number of things to me about the neighborhood or city. She has a good heart, and I realize that I will be her in 20 years or so, anyway.
It seems my whole family and I have geeked out on the Decorah Eagle cam. The eagles have laid three eggs that are due to hatch any day. That's the attached link.
