Will It Be Over Soon?

Went to see the lawyer today. We went over the proposed m@rit@l settlement @greement (msa) changes. He made such a big deal about having to pay 28% of his paycheck for child support. So I told my lawyer to take that out. Don’t even mention the 28%. If he thinks he can raise a child on $250 a month, let him. I am beyond arguing about money. I don’t want our going separate ways to be about money anyway. I’ve been raising the two bunnies on my paycheck alone for over a year now, I think I can manage it for a few more years. He thinks I am clueless when it comes to managing my finances. But I think that is just the control-freak in him talking. I will be fine. When the house is sold and I don’t have anymore mortgage to pay on top of also paying rent, I will be less strap financially. I am being realistic and I am well aware that it will be hard initially. But others’ have had it harder than me. Actually, he may have it harder than me. He quit his job. Had a police record for dom violence. Then I am divorcing him. So now he is unemployed. Can’t get a job with his record. He is paying half the mortgage. And he can’t beat on me anymore. Yep. I think he has it harder than me. So. Hard as it is for me now, I think it could have been worse.
