Assuming that you have no minor children together, and that you have truly divided up all of your stuff, then generally, there should be nothing preventing you from getting divorced. You should generally be able to file a simplified dissolution of marriage action, serve your spouse, and obtain a divorce.

In Florida, she cannot stop a divorce, even if she doesn't cooperate. You need to hire an attorney to help you finalize your divorce proceedings.

Your case is probably closed by the clerk due to lack of activity. You will have to re-open the case. Use of a lawyer is recommended.

You go to an attorney and file for divorce. The court is obligated to enter a final judgment when you testify that the marriage is irretrievably broken.

It sounds like you need to re-file your divorce. Florida is a no-fault State so even if she does not want a divorce, you can still get one by default. She does not have to be in Court for you to get your divorce. If there is no property, no minor children, etc., it should be very straight forward and quick. Good luck.
