I'll tell you more about my marriage later, right now more about my background is in order.
So... we moved all over the place. Just Mom & Dad, and me and Krys (my only sister).
Krys was born in Gallup New Mexico when I was five. She came into the world far more smoothly than I did. In fact the nurses were holding her back and scolding my mother to wait for the doctor. When the Dr. arrived, he held out his hands, caught her, held her up, said "there isn't she ugly", threw her in a basket and walked out. For this he gets paid how much??? I am in the wrong profession.
I did not want a sibling, therefore I was very jealous & spiteful to her. I treated her very badly all through our childhood, until I became a teen, after which I mostly just ignored her very existance.
My Parents came to an especially bad spot in their marriage. They formally seperated. My mother having female problems underwent a complete hysterectomy. My Father, perhaps to cope with my Mother had an affair, in fact even moving his mistress into our house (under the guise of "secretary"). So my mom moved us out. That year was actually one of the best of my childhood. Things were closer to normal than ever. I even kindof tolerated my sister. My mother met the woman who would be the best friend of a lifetime, whose children became like siblings to my sister and me. We had some great times over a period of about five years, and through the end of my parents seperation. The end of this happy time was marked by my teen years, and finally with my mother shunning her best friend. To this day I do not know where Cheryl Moody is or what became of Tony Fretas and his sister Tracey.
This is a good example of how unforgiving my mother could be. It was over me that it all began (ended). I was being an especially unrully teen. Running with a bad crowd, doing drugs, skipping school and the like. I had a hoodlem boyfriend, whom I was forbidden to see, so, of course I snuck him in as often as I could, and one day we were caught.My Mother had warned me, if she caught us she would ship me off to my Dad in Arizona. My mom was enrolled in night school with Cheryl. When she caught me and Danny, she packed me up and shipped me off so fast I was in shock for a week. Then my mom packed everything up, quit school and moved the rest of the family to Arizona. Cheryl was understandably disappointed to lose her friend and school mate, and spoke out against me as the cause of it all. She told my mom that I would never amount to anything, and advised my mom to stay with her and stay in school. Never speak out to a mother against her children. She never spoke to Cheryl again. She also would not speak to me when she arrived in Arizona and I thought I would never win her favor again.
Relationships were strained. When school enrollment time came around, the perfect opportunity presented itself to me. JOBCORPS! Jobcorps was my salvation, and the beginning of a new and brighter chapter of my life.
