So, she lied to me about getting her stuff out of the house. She lied to me when she said she’d filed – on a Friday, but they’d told her it would take effect on Monday. None of that actually happened.

She hasn’t filed yet. Checklist says… order copy of marriage license from Washtenaw County. Done and done.

She hasn’t gotten her stuff out of the house, and she hasn’t cleaned out the fridge in the house.
Well, I’ve already been waiting for a reply from the mortgage company. Wait, what’s this? Breaking news, there’s a lock-box on the front door of the house, and the back door is barricaded. I’ve also gotten a confirmation notice that a new insurance policy has been taken out on the house, and they’d received the paperwork. So, either this is my answer – say goodbye to the house – or they just noticed that it was vacant, and are taking the normal steps. In either case, unless she breaks in, *headdesk* her stuff is now inaccessible to her.

So, now, I’m back (still?) in limbo with the house. At least I can make progress on the divorce.

Oh, and the dog? Brandy has him, in a rented house. I have to make time to go over and see him. I’m relieved that poor planning and last-minute flailing didn’t end him up in the pound.
