If it is uncontested and all property issues are already resolved to everyone's satisfaction call the nearest court with jurisdiction. That will usually be the County Seat and the County Court.
Different states have different requirements and some don't require an attorney to go through a divorce. If that's your case; proceed as they direct.
A friend who has been through the same gauntlet could also be an invaluable source of information.
WARNING: If the case is being contested, if there are issues with property, if child custody is a factor or if your husband retains an attorney you would be best served by getting one also. DON'T even try to go up against an attorney without one of your own.
My sympathies, divorce is no fun and at Christmas time it has to be even worse.
My second marriage has lasted nearly 37 years so far. I'm beginning to think she might be a keeper. My dad always said the first 40 years were the hardest. I hope you have similar luck should you marry again.

If you and your husband is in agreement with each other on the divorce and the conditions, then all you need to do is file it at the court house. Otherwise, you will need an attorney to sort out your rights from his, and fight for some of it.

Find a divorce lawyer. They are sometimes called "family" attorneys. Also do a google search about the divorce laws in your state.

if both of you agree to the divorce and can work out the details then you can save monies by filling the forms yourself or using a firm that does non-contested divorce for a flat fee
if you can not work out the details then you will need to hire a family lawyer

I agreed with 2d answer. i've got faith the 1st answer is incorrect because of the fact i know a guy that has been divorced two times. He did no longer trust the two divorce and refused to sign the papers the two situations. And the two situations the divorces have been granted without his signature.

If there are no kids, property, assets or debts involved you can probably do it on your own. If you think he might screw you in a divorce you should probably hire one. Contact your local bar or state bar association and they can refer you to a divorce attorney.
