Future Single Lady: Surviving and Thriving Through Divorce
Episode 7 - Moving, Gathering & Swapping!
Day of Events: February 17, 2024
An entire day of gathering my things from around the house to help respectfully create more definition between each person's space; an exhausting task but also incredibly rewarding, too!
On this day, I was primarily focused on getting all the stuff I had stored in the spare room (and there was a lot of it!) out of it so that my future ex could have his own personal space.
Note: a lot of these things were baby keepsakes, tax returns, excess work supplies sometimes used at home, family paperwork, family pictures, printers, etc- the stuff no one wants to be in charge of or have to deal with but someone's got to do it, right?

Time to spill the tea! It's tea time! Tea time! And I'm not talking about on a golf course. This is me spilling my tea. I'm the future single lady. I'm Scarlett Davis, and this is how it goes. This is my version of things. This is my input, my perspective, as I force a divorce between myself and my husband of almost, well, almost 19 years together for 20. So. However you want to call that. It's dramatic and this is me documenting it and sharing it with the whole world, splitting my heart wide open and spilling it all, spilling my guts. So I hope you enjoy and just know that this podcast is for entertainment purposes only. I am not a counselor. I am not a legal professional. Any advice that you may think I'm giving, just know that it's just from a woman who likes to talk to people and share her stuff and really just wants the world to be a better place. I'm not qualified in any way to actually give advice. But I can tell you my story. And this is how it goes. All right, moving on. So doing the journaling for the days. It's February 17th, 2024. And only about, uh, half a page of journaling here. So, I'll just go right into it. Whoo! This was, uh, recorded in the evening. So, whoo! Full day of moving, gathering, swapping. Yesterday was great. Full of clients, but the last two were the best two. My sweet babies. Heart sunshine emoji. Today I asked Yofiel, that's an archangel, to help and whatever angel helps with organization! Exclamation mark. Started in daughter's room with books while she was at practice. She went to a fast food restaurant with a friend and next thing I knew it was three hours later and, uh, I had my son get a hold of her. Turns out, turns out that her friend's grandma died that morning, this morning. My son slept in until I told him at 10. 50 to get up. Later I fussed at him to really get up. So sweet. He helped me move furniture and switch the bed around in my bedroom. Happy face. And he stood up for himself. He pointed out, I think he was pointing out that my daughter was escaping out of helping. He played games while I filled boxes and waited on her to move him into my room. Rona, that's the cat, has been very sweet with me. Lots of love lately. Smiley face. Turns out husband will be home. 8 to 9 a. m. Somewhere in there, so I'm gonna pause here. So right after this whole process, I forget what today and I'm surprised I didn't note it in here. Basically, he immediately left for for a few days, and I don't blame him. He had to get out of the house and reset mentally and hindsight tells me that he was probably pulling some oh shit stuff and really having to cover his butt because, but I don't know that's, Me just using what I know about him to draw those conclusions. Anyway, he left for a few days. Uh, my daughter cleaned her room and her closet per me. I told her to. She's a little feverish and definitely stopped up and snotty nose. Hope she's okay. She works at 11 tomorrow. Husband told son to ask me what we wanted for dinner tomorrow night exclamation mark nice double exclamation mark I'm so excited exclamation mark. I hope all is going well in this and that this is a good sign heart sunshine emoji My aunt called this morning to check in on everyone. I Look for and expect great things exclamation mark I really want a wonderful family dinner with husband the kids and I tomorrow great food great company still a family happier nicer and kinder than ever before You Exclamation mark, sunshine, heart emoji, smiley face, heart sunshine emoji, smiley face. So you can tell, this is five days after I have asked for a peaceful parting of ways. And it looks like I'm getting it. And that's great, it's awesome, it's I knew it was possible. And I'm really excited at this point, at that happening. But that was then. What I can tell you is it didn't stay that way. There's a reason that I had to say before that I had to fight my way through this mentally, emotionally, and once, even physically. So. We'll continue on later, but at this point I'm very happy, I'm very excited, I'm super incredibly hopeful. I hope my drama is keeping you entertained. I hope it's not too much and not too little. I hope it's delivered well and that it's received well. And if not, well, there's not much I can do about it right this second. But I hope it gets better for you, in whatever way that is. In truth, this is just me living my life and telling it in my way. This is my story, and I hope you get something out of it.
