Well, it's official. I sat in Superior Court today for 3 hours waiting on my 5 minutes of fame - and then had to share it with two other women. But after our 5 minutes were over, we were our own women again. I have legally changed my name back to my maiden name. I've been divorced for 5 years now, and I'm just now getting around to changing it back. It never really bothered me until I earned my Associates Degree in management last December - seeing my ex-husband's last name on my degree took some of the wind out of my sails and I knew I had to get rid of that name before I finished up my Bachelor's Degree. Anyway, the judge signed the order and the clerk entered it into the county's legal records so I did it.

Afterwards, I had lunch with my parents. I pretty much expected them (esp my mama) to just smile politely while in their minds they're thinking "another part of her divorce that we'll have to be reminded of." But they were actually happier than I expected. My daddy was like, "whoohoo welcome back to the Roberts family" (ok, he didn't actually say 'woohoo' but if that word was in his vocabulary, he would have used it then).

Anyway, I'm back to who I want to be. Well, the beginning of who I want to be... Onward and Upward!
