Looking back now, I cannot remember a single Holiday that passed by without excessive arguments with my ex-husband. I use to think he was purposely trying to make the holiday unpleasant for us. I remember trying to create the holiday mood by playing Bing Crosby Christmas, decorating the tree, hanging the stockings and such. What I most... Continue Reading →
Okay, so last night my dream included my manipulative abusive Ex-boss. It is very irritating to end relationships with people only to have them visit you in your dreams. In my dream I remember being upset and my boss was there. Also there was some other guy playing football (I don't watch football?) and was... Continue Reading →
There were many days when my ex-husband use to come home really late & after he had been out drinking. I would be sleeping in our master bedroom, with the door locked and he would continue to knock on the door until I would open it. He would want sex, I would tell him no,... Continue Reading →
