finality.

so mum phoned last night.

after a fairly usual conversation about whats been happening, she tacked onto the end "oh, and i just thought you should know im going to divorce your father".

now, mum and dad broke up 8 and a half years ago. so, im kinda the whole thing. the finality of it all kinda hits me, but i knew they never would get back together anyway.
and dad has been saying that he wants to get a divorce for the past 4ish years.
mind you, hes a lot like me in that sense, that unless there is a big red flashing sign saying "do this now" in constant view all the time, it wont get done...

she said that shes in no rush, but shes sent away for the papers, and then will send them to dad. so one day dad isnt going to be in a very good mood...

and i think its about time...

Yeah, I know how you feel.

It was really scary when my parents made the 'finality' of becoming divorced. I always used to believe that I could get them back together. There was a road in Pinnaroo called "lovers lane", and I knew that if I could get them to drive down that together, they could magically fall in love again.

My mum cried as she saw the papers going through the court in the paper (for some reason they have it in the paper).

It wasnt just distressing for my mum, but me, as a young child, felt so helpless and scared.
