Sept. 9, 2003 To Amend, or Not to Amend?….That Protection Order… So, Mr. Insignificant had “his knickers ripped,” as he is so fond of saying when anyone falls flat on his face. It gave him that secret satisfaction that someone else was having a rough time, or better yet, got caught doing something he/she shouldn’t have been doing. Hmmmmm???? It looks like he got what he so fervently wished on others and it is about high time his mean doings came to light! Yeeeeeehawwwww! Hand in the c...
August 10, 2003 My husband’s journal….it just buggered the crap out of me as to what it all meant. Now, I know… maybe. It appears CC was jealous of my past….how he found the names, I’m not sure….was it from my journals I’d kept for years? Nothing explicit in those journals, only my reactions and observations and the events of my poor boring little life! Did he go through my pictures in the storage room? That wouldn’t have given him names, or did he find my letters and cards I’ve kept...
Aug. 20, 2003 Wed. Secrets Interesting….what makes a person squirm? Truth revealed, or the threat of the truth being revealed is a powerful incentive to strike at the bearer or the receiver of that truth. Funny thing, truth comes to us in strange and unexpected ways: the chance encounter with a friend whose conversation makes you blink!…What!?? what did she say???….wait a minute!! What DID she say? !! Well, she unwittingly spoke the truth about an event involving “him”. He’s now afrai...
The Story of the Invisible Chicken "Chickens in the bread pan pecking at the dough; Granny, does you dog bite...?" ----Charlie Daniels An angry man can look like many things; however, if a guy is 5 foot nothing, got a bad case of the "Little Man Syndrome," and thoroughly pissed because his wife finished the job he started, i.e., 3 years of spousal abuse he initiated. One should attempt to maintain a dignified demeanor, don’t you think? But, NOOOOOOOOOOOO! He wanted revenge, he wanted to...
Sept 12, 2003 Dear Bubba, Praise the Lord! You are outta jail on the work release program, and Ima Jean Sweeney is one happy woman! Hope your biscuits were good, darling. HeeHeeHeeee! Old Ima Jean called me today to tell me the good news: You all are getting married! I’m just thrilled to death! We talked about many things, or should I say, she did most the talking about the dresses she wants us to wear, shoes, food, wedding cake the location and such. I have to say, I do think the...
August 11, 2003 For an old woman going through a hideous divorce, I’m doing fine! Don’t have any discretionary funds, but there are other folks willing to entertain me and come to my house for dinner and TV. So, life ain’t so bad……no it ain’t! Afterall, the military takes care of dependents to a small degree, so it’s not nearly as bad as it could be. My spirits are up, my house is clean, I’ve made any number of improvements and repairs my husband just wouldn’t do, and the yard looks gre...
"I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell.." ---Matchbox 20 "Unwell" Aug 29, 2003 She didn’t know what was going on with this guy, her old man, her husband….he didn’t like anything she did, didn’t agree with anything she brought up in conversation and did all he could to demean her intelligence and personal projects. In other words, this guy was a DIVA, the epitome of the word! Put a halter dress on him and a pair of high heels and Wheeeeeeeeee!! Snap! Snap! Snap! He’s ready for Car...
November 5, 2005 Dear Diane, Well of all the things! I went to the attorney’s office today to do what? Oh, yeah! That deposition thing that is supposed to take place on November the 17th…preparing for those hard questions Mr. Passive-Aggressive’s attorney will be throwing at me like sharp pencils being thrown in a classroom. But, no, my dear, this didn’t take place, because my “husband”, and I use that word with the utmost contempt, is dragging his feet. The court date has been postpo...
October 30, 2003 The World Series & Gifts From the Groom The last month I’ve been “eat up” with baseball. I LOVE baseball! The playoffs were wonderful…I rooted for the Atlanta Braves, but they lost in the playoffs. I rooted for the Cubs…they lost. I rooted for the Redsocks…they lost. I rooted for the Marlins and finally, by God, my team won not only the playoffs, but the World Series! Great, great games! I haven’t slept a full night in more than a month, but now I’m catching zzzzs a...
Oct 17, 2003 OK! So, my husband has lost his mind entirely. Oh, yes, he has just lost it! It can only be said "I love my wife and I want to come home," was about the weirdest thing I'd heard since we parted company. My attorney relayed the message to me from my husband. I don't get it, don't care. It ain't happening. So, I arrived home Tuesday to find a huge cardboard box delivered by UPS on my front porch. God, it was a heavy mother! I struggled to lift it into the house and dropped...
November 13, 2003 I feel like I’m living in a Hitchcock film…it appears nobody believes me. I’m not crazy most of the time. Just a lot pissed off. He lied to me about his adulterous relationship and I punched him in the mouth. I confess; I did it! No point in lying. I hit him a glancing blow in the mouth. Didn’t draw a drop of blood, didn’t break the skin and no telltale bruise was left on those lying lips. And he had the gall to have me arrested for assault after he knocked me down, toss...
