MONDAY:
I am not being dramatic when I say today was one of the worst days of my life. When I woke up I knew it was going to be a bad day... A few hours into my morning I found out why.
He filed.
Not just that, but he wanted to serve me TODAY. I was just so shocked. Its so fast. At first we wanted to serve me at work in front of our boss Doug (because he was a notary), but I was able to convince him to wait until after work and I would meet him at the bank in front of a notary to receive the papers.
I felt like I was going to throw up all day.
After work I drove to the bank, walked in and found him waiting. I resolved that I would be strong, but when the notary ask for my ID I started to cry. I didn't say a word. I received the papers, signed for them (shaking) and left. I didn't look back, I didn't stop to chat I just had to get to my car... I sat and bawled. I saw him drive away.... eventually I did too.
I saw our Dodge Ram right up front as I passed the Ford dealership. I cried more.

I had been texting my cousin, Kenny throughout the day and he told me the day he got served he went to the store and bought a gallon of lemonade and enjoyed it....
I decided to follow suit.
I bought a big pile of lemons.
I bought a big pile of lemons.
And made the best lemonade I have ever drank. My mom came over and had a glass with me. I joked that it was a little salty (from my tears)...
Perfect Lemonade
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup sugar (can reduce to 3/4 cup)
- 1 cup water (for the simple syrup)
- 1 cup lemon juice
- 3 to 4 cups cold water (to dilute)
METHOD
1 Make simple syrup by heating the sugar and water in a small saucepan until the sugar is dissolved completely.
2 While the sugar is dissolving, use a juicer to extract the juice from 4 to 6 lemons, enough for one cup of juice.
3 Add the juice and the sugar water to a pitcher. Add 3 to 4 cups of cold water, more or less to the desired strength. Refrigerate 30 to 40 minutes. If the lemonade is a little sweet for your taste, add a little more straight lemon juice to it.
Serve with ice, sliced lemons.
Yield: Serves 6.
I decided if this was real I mind as well get working on going through the house. At least he is being very gracious with all the 'stuff' he is letting me do it on my own time and letting me have whatever I want...
Its crazy we had enough stuff for two households and even a little more for a yardsale... too much stuff!
I hate today.
