No more obligations

So, I recently just completed my court-mandated financial obligations.  I wrote the final check to my ex-wife.  And now, I am free and clear of that b**ch now.  I don't have any more obligations left to deal with.   For the last six months, I've had those obligations hanging over my head.  I've also had to maintain a bit of credit card debt which I accumulated during the whole divorce proceedings.  But I got lucky because my company made a slight mistake and paid out one of my bonuses a little earlier than expected.  And that helped.

It's a relief because I don't have to stress about that now.  I can finally start focusing on the future and work on build back my finances that was pretty much depleted in the whole divorce.  I'm not really starting over, but now I feel like that past is fully behind me.  It's a great feeling.
