It's been a year since things started falling apart and eight months since he moved out, so in a way I had started mourning this ordeal months before it actually ended. There are still bad days here and there, but I'm finally reaching the point where the good days outnumber the bad.

Remember to be kind to yourself and give yourself time to mourn. As my therapist said, you either deal with it now or make an appointment to deal with it later.

It's been almost five months since my divorce was finalized and four months since I moved back to Philly. It's weird to say this, but I think I'm actually ok for the first time in a really long time. I never thought I could be happy alone. Today I had a the best day. I bought a bunch of stuff at Target, I sat in the…

I’m really into Fossil purses right now, my favorite bag at the moment is a Fossil leather crossbody. They hold up really well and are nice leather without being crazy expensive.

I got dumped by my husband eight months ago. It gets better! Hugs! Here is my cat as a baby!

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately. I went on birth control pills at 17 and I’m now 31. I’m divorced with no sex life to speak of and I’m curious about how it would feel to be free of these hormones. My period is already fucked up right now and I’m longing for a natural cycle. I’m going to the gyno in a couple…

I recently moved back home to Philly after being in the Midwest for 2.5 years. There are lots of things to hate: rudeness, traffic, crime. But goddamn it’s good to be home. I love the food, the familiar accent, the general feeling of being home. (And of course my family and friends) I didn’t really appreciate it until…

Yesterday I went for a walk in the snow to get some groceries. I noticed dudes looking at me and thought "oh I must look cute today!" When I got home I realized I actually had mascara all over my face like a crazy person. Thanks snow!

I have mice in my building. Figure out where they are getting in and stuff steel wool into the holes. I also have a cat, which helps.

I made chocolate chip cookies with mini eggs instead of chips!

OH SHIT YES

It's very unexpected, I'm normally in the greys!

I did Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado as a honeymoon, gorgeous scenery and hiking, we stayed in an affordable cabin right outside the park.

I am a nervous traveler but I actually enjoy traveling alone. You can get there as early as you want, do things on your own time. Download some music and podcasts for your flight and bring snacks! I always but buy water as soon as I get through security because flying makes you dehydrated. For some reason I always…

Love Taco Tuesday's!

Accurate. He's a tough little cat.

I've actually lost ten pounds. Everything in moderation.

Nope! I also moved halfway across the country, got my career back and made a bunch of new friends. Being able to eat and do whatever I want is just a part of my post divorce life. But thanks for your judgement! I'm sorry if my post divorce happiness threatens you.

I've been single for six months. I obviously don't lay in bed eating chocolate and drinking everyday. I have a job, friends and a dog. However, it's great to have the freedom to do so on a Friday night if I feel so inclined. Thanks though...

Why does being divorced have to be a bad thing? I was in an unhappy marriage. Now I'm not. And I'm happy!
