It has been 8 months since I last published something to do with “My Story”. There’s been a few in the “Windmill Tilting” section, but nothing here – the reason why, is as follows:
My wife is my editor-in-chief because I’m a notorious ‘comma splicer’ among other grammatical sacrilege. What we discovered in her reviewing my writing, is that my writing had become a rather large ‘scab picker.’
The hurt that I caused my wife will never completely heal. In fact, it seems that my first wife (El) hates me more now than she did before. I’ve offered a variety of olive branches to work things out; at least to the level of some form of civility, however all I get is silence. In November (2018), my (middle) son got married and it was a ‘family affair.’ El acted as if my wife & I had leprosy, and my 3rd son had only anger in his eyes.
Back to scab picking…
My wife was getting better, the reminders of what we “fondly” refer to as ‘the crap’ were occurring less frequently, but tended to spike when another blog chapter came up for review. Eight months later, we’re going to give it another try.
Hopefully the scab has fallen off, but the scar will remain forever.
On to Gator Country.
