I don’t know why anyone would want to get divorced. I mean, whatever happened to “working things out?” Just the simple act of changing your name (I took my maiden name back) has become a monstrosity of paperwork and red tape. No thanks.
I always said if I ever got married again (not likely, at my age) I would be Mrs. Whatever, but my legal name would stay the same. I wouldn’t even bother to hyphenate it. Too much trouble.
My legal name is still my original name. It’s on all my parents’ estate paperwork!
Mrs. ArGee has put up with me for nearly 35 years now. If she can do that, nobody has any excuse.
When kids ask me how I stayed married so long I ask them to move in closer because it’s a secret. Then I tell them the secret.
Don’t get divorced.
