The Divorce

As I mentioned in my last post, I was married for a brief time. From engagement to filing for divorce was only 18 months. Talk about a roller coaster, but nothing like the roller coaster that ensued after filing.

I played a little independent baseball and Pro overseas, and

We will get through this and every other obstacle!
