I was pleased to hear from a playwright aquaintance today that is interested in hearing of an idea that planted itself during evening tea times at the shelter, with two particularly insightful and intelligent ladies that became my friends while living there. I met the playwright three years ago while working in a community theater project based on true local narratives and stories from our area. I was very impressed with her talent at taking a bunch of narratives and then being able to turn them into a cohesive unit. She is in my view an artist that paints with words, sets, music, and actors. She is also a person who cares about changing society in a positive way through her work.
I also heard from an artist friend from my UGA days today. She is traveling now but will be back home for Christmas and we plan to get together in the new year. She is creative, funny, intelligent and just enough 'out of the box' to be inspiring.
I heard from my attorney today, that my husband did not sign the divorce papers and yet again I had to look over another proposal from his attorney that is unacceptable. I am willing to let go of all material things, but I am not willing to agree to not protecting our child. I will honor whatever the judge decides, after our case is presented. I feel confident that with the witnesses we have he will not prevail any further.
Voices today, two encouraging and one aggravating, I am still in the positive balance. I will pray tonight that he is persuaded to sign soon, not only for Sarah and I but for him too. Some of our testimony will only hurt him further when he comes to trial for his criminal charge.
Cathy, I tried to post here yesterday and I didn't do the "comment as" right. I ended up replying on the FB that you sent me from your daughters fb. I was confused and thought it was yours. Hope that is ok. There are lots of Catherine Cavins on fb so I don't know how to invite you. But, yes, we can be friends. Tree and I actually wanted to look you up when we were in GA but I got the sense that it wouldn't be OK with you. I'd love to see your work, and hear all about what you've been up to. It is so great to hear from you. I've read your blog and am sorry for what you've been through, but know that "Breaking the Silence" will be a gift to the rest of us. My email is cwmarkishere@yahoo.com. Take care.
