Well, Tomorrow (May 25) would mark my 8 year wedding anniversary. 9 years of being with the same man.
Never once did I cheat, never once did I feel the need to even look.
I was ok with what I had in life.
Granted, times were not always happy. Times weren't always peaceful...
"rough spots" were everywhere.
But, I can look back and honestly say, I cannot regret any of it.
Had I not met Marcus when I did, I wouldn't have my children. I can't regret that, because that would be regreting them...
I can't regret staying with him for so long... because without that battle... I wouldn't be as strong as I am now, I wouldn't be able to stand up to a lot of things.
Without knowing him, I wouldn't have gotten to know some awesome people.
My best friend, Ambra... her husband, Troy.. they're kids. Got to love them!
I never would have met Stevie, never would have gotten to know him like I have.
I wouldn't have met Jarrod, Justin, Amanda, and Brandy.
I adore marcus's family. I'll always think of them as my family still. They're been a part of me for 9 years now...
I feel sad... only because there seems to have been alot more that could have been done. But I can't regret any of it at all.
I love my family & my friends.
I'm honored to know them all.
Will I cry tomorrow? I hope not. I'm in the process of planning to go out and make sure my mind stays off of things at hand...
May 25 also marks the 30th day since I filed for divorce... meaning I'm 1/3 of the way through the waiting period. It marks the 76th day since he left.
Yeah, I'm counting down.
I'm tougher than some give me credit for... but more delicate than some could imagine.
I'll post an update if I get the date I want out of tomorrow. ;)
