(LOL, love this new post title thing already!)


Hubby busted out yesterday (kinda scared me, he busted out literally and loudly) with, ' so what's going to happen on the 6th, *******? (I never put my name up). I responded with ' oh, so this is why u've been crotchety and mean to everyone? Well I don't know, only you can answer that'.

Hubby: Are u getting divorced?

me: ur the one who has to pronounce it.

Hubby: we shoulda just left the contract at a year. U forced me into this.

me: Did not. And you agreed.

Hubby: Well, I don't agree to it now.

me: You're going back on ur word?

Blank stare.

me: Lemme rephrase. What makes u think you have the right to keep me in a situation I don't want to be in?

Hubby (sits down): I don't have the right.

me: well then?

Hubby: anyway the contract says if u ask for the divorce. Are u going to ask?

me: yeah, probably

Hubby: where u gonna go?

me: apartment, I guess?

Hubby: Where!!

me: here in Kuwait

hubby: when?

me: after the 3 months is up?

Silence.

He also mentioned the grace period again. Should I give it? I don't feel I should. I feel like he's had 11 years worth of chances. As scared and anxious as I am, I don't want to give him 2 extra months. But here's why I will: BECAUSE THAT'S 2 EXTRA MONTHS TO SAVE MONEY. I haven't informed him yet of my decision. But that's the conclusion I've come to. And it's not me getting cold feet or my unconscious way of saying I really want to be married. I so don't. This is just the most practical solution. I'm behind schedule on my business and I haven't saved enough money. And I will have him put in writing also that if he hasn't fixed his shit by then I'm out pending his pronouncement and I WILL request it. Also, this time I'm getting the thing witnessed and stamped. Enough of this shit.

I know, I know, another delay. But financially, this is the smart thing to do. His crack will be so frigging relieved. I know he's been making dua for it and to actually be aware of his dua being answered through my decision is creepy in the extreme, but there you go. Allah is the best planner, ameen.

I got nothing else to report, so lata...
