Heather Mills is planning a seven-day divorce party for her and 25 of her closest friends. The cost? $500,000. Mills plans to fly the group to Necker Island, a private Caribbean spot, to the tune of $49,000 a night.

The interesting bit about this is the fact that Mills was extremely concerned with her public image during the divorce proceedings with ex Paul McCartney. She made a point of rebutting comments that she was only in it for the money, vehemently denying she was a "gold-digger," and emphasizing that she needed proper support to care for their daughter, Beatrice.

But the extravagance of this party seems to speak otherwise.

Don't get me wrong. It's her money now, fair and square. She entitled to do with it what she pleases. Not sure if it's sending the right message, which seems to be a little "in your face, Paul," doesn't it?

Giving a whole new meaning to the phrase “foul ball,” H. Elizabeth King, a psychologist, accused her ex-husband of violating their 2002 divorce agreement over how to divvy up tickets to Atlanta Braves games.

Prior to her divorce, King says she had four tickets to 27 home games as part of a three-way, season-ticket partnership. Under her divorce agreement, her ex got the first home game, then each got 13 games. When one of the partners died last year, King’s ownership increased to a full third.

At a court hearing earlier this week King claimed that her ex, who distributed the tickets to the partners, offered her tickets to games that conflicted with her schedule—on purpose. She also suggested that he gave her tickets to day games because she had skin cancer.

King's ex testified that he distributed tickets sequentially, according to a mathematical formula which he adjusted when people made special requests or if there were conflicting schedules.

Superior Court Judge Melvin K. Westmoreland urged the baseball-loving exes to settle out of court.

The FWW team has limitless positive energy for meeting the needs of women who’ve been touched, flattened, or propelled by divorce. Readers will benefit from your experience, insight, specific suggestions, and success. Already, you’re not alone. I’m learning as well. For example, when I first considered writing a blog about divorce, I fell back on stereotypes--- loss, anger, and helplessness.

Divorce. In the game of Charades, (pulling on the earlobe), “sounds like” force, coarse, abortion, hoard, torture, mortgage. Yes, “divorce” fits with words that sound curt, blurting from the front of the mouth, generating images of hard-edged feelings, impact, and unforeseen fallout.

As I continued ruminating, I flashed on softer sounding words and phrases related to divorce, with open sounds, such as sing, dance, kiss, stroll, smile, celebrate, play, laugh.
