Changing names

We were talking about changing or not changing your last name after a divorce (of course this usually applies only to women) and a couple of the ladies said they couldn't wait to shed the name that went along with the husband. I said I figured after 28 years I earned the name and wasn't about to give it back. That really wasn't the reason but it did get a laugh. The real reason was it's my grandson's last name and not his mom's. It didn't seem right to make him get used to any more changes than were necessary so I kept it. I'd had my married name longer than my maiden name so it just seem natural. The shorter version is still funnier.
