This course of divorce has been broken down into small steps, ironically enough, those steps have assisted me in building my new "normal." 

Since August of 2003, I have not been able to have my name on certain utilities due to company policy. The result was not only receiving and viewing the name of the man who walked out, but also paying those bills, thus assisting his credit for the past 4 years. This was difficult to do. Ask yourself, how would you solve this problem?

 I’ve written many letters, spoken with many a customer service rep till a court order had to be set into place. This week January 26, 2007, I’m incredibly pleased to share that I will finally have my name on some accounts! All of that for local & long distance phone service!

This message is to encourage those of you who are building those small steps personally or professionally to know that perseverance and patience are incredibly rewarding. It may take some time, just like finding your "new" normal.
