[QUOTE="rejectedmom, post: 584329, member: 2315"] My biggest concern is that I have no retirement benifits of my own and no marketable skills. I would go back to school and get my teaching certification but the school districts are not hiring except for Special Education and honestly I do not want to do that anymore... I have been logging hours and hours searching for jobs but with my very poor typing skills (due to no feeling and minor partial paralysis in my left hand so improvement is not likely) well it really isn't panning out. Add my age in there and yikes! AARP says that finding work at over 50 is the hardest of all age catagories I am 12 years past 50. Spent yesterday researching lawyers and think I found one. I will be seeing him next week. In the meantime I'm going t ask at my ladies club if anyone knows of a good one. Not going to say it is me because I do not want the pity. Especially in place to which I go to have fun and escape my troubles. I will just say it is a friend who is new to the area. The lawyer that I'm considering said that I have three choices I can ask for a seperation, I can tie up a divorce up in the courts for about two years if I contest it (expensive but would get me to SS age) or I can agree to a divorce and try to make him pay for my health insurance and cost of living.
