filing taxes single

this is my second year filing taxes single. (thank you turbo tax) the divorce was official in july of 2008. i don't know if i did it correctly but oh well, moving on.

there is a strange sadness in what i just did. an emptiness. i feel weird that i feel this way but i must still be grieving... or something.

sad that this part of life has been done alone when it wasn't those 8 consecutive years before, teary-eyed of what could've been, that expectations went unfulfilled, and lonely. not many deductions to report (for me) translates to dreams and goals erased but hopefully just put on hold.

this wouldn't be a journal if i never express the good the bad and the ugly. i guess this would classify as the bad.

self-pity parties are ok in my book, as long as they don't last more than an hour. i let it out. i'm moving on. i'm looking forward to what is to come.
