Well, my divorce is finalized, but my house is still not sold which is eating a whole in my budget every month. Oh well, hopefully soon.
To explain, I made the foolish choice about a year ago to buy a house with my now ex wife. We had thought that somehow buying a new house would give us a new perspective on our marriage as well, but I learned this lesson the hard way that problems don't go away unless you confront and deal with them. I had actually asked her if "she was sure it was a good idea to get into a house when we're having problems?" And she said yes. I should have been more adamant about not getting the house, but lesson learned.

Now I'm single and free (except for part of the mortgage until its sold), which I find now is very different. See, I had never been single before - went straight from my parents house to living with her when I was 21. Obviously I have freedoms that I never had before, but of course its harder to do anything because of 1 income. Oh well. At least I have my new puppy Chubbs, he's uber cute - I have posted a pic of him Don't ya just wanna cuddle him? XD

Anyways, Happy Holidays all, make sure you spend it with someone you care about, its what the Holidays are all about.
