I probably could write a book if I took the time, Boy would I need Lot of time 16 years of being stupid in a marriage and not seeing what it was doing and what it had done, lets say I was crazy. I left a few things out with my first writing on this because so much went on and I really don't know what can be written here. So I will just write a few of the things and go with the flow with what comes to mind. It will be more of and back and forth type thing. Well some of the things that I should have stopped early was Him keeping me from being with family, Like when My older sister got married , I had to tell him I was going to work. I took my big purse with clothes for the wedding with me I had to stop at the store on the way to where I was going to be picked up so I could buy some makeup, He wouldn't let me dress like a woman or wear make up anything like that, Boy was I stupid to let some man control my life. I was so young when we got together I thought this was how it was after a while and just went with it. Well a couple weeks after my sisters wedding he found out I lied, I never heard the end of it and well You can figure out what happened. There were times he would be out drinking and those nights I hated because he would come home at 3am and demand me to get out of bed and make him something to eat, So he wouldn't wake the kids I did. One night he told me to take his boots off for him and I refused, he beat me up that night. I started to get smart and started fighting back. One night in the summer he tried to wake me I had feel asleep with my daughter who was 5 at the time, He tried to take her from the bed while yelling, I looked at her and her eyes were so big , she was scared so I got up, he started to hit me in the other room so I fought back, I broke his nose... well that stopped him he left and stayed gone for the night, Every day after that I got wiser. Then the day came when I said no more. It was a hot summer and that afternoon it had started to rain My oldest boy was 9 at the time and he wanted to take on a paper route because it was raining I told him I would help him so it could get done faster, well his father had just got home and drunk like always, he started to fight with me while my son was waiting outside in the rain, he knocked me out into the back hall , I turned to my left and saw my son in the rain crying, I stood up looked at his dad lifted my leg up and told him no more I kicked him in his chest and knocked him back on his rear, I said thank you , you just opened my door to freedom, I grabbed my daughter a coat , my purse my son and left, I didn't go back. I called the police to take me over to get some things because he had said he was going to kill me, the children then himself. OK I will finish this on my next writing with what happened when The police got to the house...
