It will sink in gradually. And yes to a party!! When I got a divorce several years ago, I signed everything in my lawyer's office, and I think he did the same at his lawyer's office because there was abuse involved. The state did not want abuse victims to come face to face at any time in the proceedings, so they protected me from that potentially dangerous situation. I was VERY grateful!

Hey, Michel! I’ve watched you for awhile, but I think this is the first time I’ve commented. I’ve been following you on your new journey. I actually couldn’t watch your video when you announced the break up because I knew I’d cry, actually for selfish reasonings because my husband left me only weeks before you posted it. From what I’ve read between the lines, we have a lot in common. We are even similar ages. So, I said all this to say, girl thank you for sharing! It’s felt like you have been there for me in a way! It’s good to see another girl who is going through what you are going through, who is also a person who always gets up no matter how hard they fall! Keep being you, you’re amazing and strong ♥️

I have an idea 💡 for getting frames for the photos you want to frame...next time you're out thrift store shopping try just searching for the frames. Even if you spot a beautiful frame with a not so appealing picture inside of it just replace the picture & use the frame 🙂. *Personally I'm more drawn to the unique yet old fashioned frames & RARELY like what was originally inside of the frame.* So maybe make a coffee ☕ thrift store search for frames to go with the photos you have. Make it your prime mission & vlog it for the future cuz I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to see that 😁. Have a wonderful day! Prayers & Wishes Lisa Hampton 😃
