I didn’t want to, but…

Ugh, I didn’t want to talk about anything divorce related, but sometimes sh*t hits the fan and you’ve got to let it out. I’ve had a few really wonderful days, going out with friends, having fun, working hard, just peachy. But last night I came home to found an envelope from my ex-MIL with tax return papers. Yeah, things were taken care of, but it turns out I owe the Government of Quebec some money (really ridiculous amount, not worried about it), but I got the papers too late and I was in anger, first because I have to pay interests and second because now I have to find a way to send the money from Colombia. Not to mention they sent a check from the Federal Government and how exactly am I going to cash it here? Duh!

My ex-husband and his mother have been the most difficult people to deal with during this process. He’s hiding, doesn’t want to talk to me (coward), she doesn’t answer the phone… Anyway. I was so upset, so disappointed, so frustrated last night, first time I was actually enraged. But I hope (crossing fingers) this is the last thing I have to deal with until divorce is final in November and then this very ugly chapter of my life will be closed. Life definitely hasn’t been easy in the last 6 months, but I’m getting there. I just hate these set-backs which send me to the dumpster and make my rollercoaster ride kind of disgusting.

I feel like I’m the only weblogger dealing with this kind of crap, but I’m sure there are other freaky stories out there and I want to share a link to wonderful place I found in December: Divorce Care & Support @ MSN. If it wasn’t for all the friends I’ve made in there, I don’t know where I would be now. If you have a friend, a relative or anyone who’s going through divorce/separation, pass it on, it’s worth it. And if anyone from DCS is reading… THANK YOU SO MUCH, I love you all!

    Is there a consulate or embassy office in your city? I’m sure they’d be able to help!

    Yes, there’s an Embassy in Bogotá, but they don’t give information about Tax Returns and things like that. I’ll have to contact Revenu Quebec directly. *Sighs* This too shall pass.

    With millions of bloggers out there if you do a technorati search (or any other) for divorce you will find people with your same situation. I am glad you found that MSN site. It does help to talk things out. :)

    ((((Hugs))))

    BEA! Great NEWS!!!! I’m SO happy to see you have a blog again! WOOOHOOOOOO! Talk about keeping in touch, this is perfect. Although I don’t have anymore time on the computer lately. LOL — Kids! You look FANTASTIC!! You must have lost a lot of weight! I have something for you, if you don’t mind calling — I’d call, but no one there understands what I’m talking about if you’re not home… Anyhow. I have something planned :P Talk to you soon! Big hugs & kisses, Elisa
