We’ll fix it up and everything will be fine…
Little did I know everything would be derailed by a trip my husband made to New York that Fall. He claimed he found the love of his life on the internet and I was not to come back to Texas. To make things worse he now wanted nothing to do with the house or anything else that had anything to do with me. It hurt then but now I realize if was one of the greatest blessings for him to go. Things were pretty dirty for a while, the divorce was chaos. I went back to Houston to try figure out what was happening to our life together. As I said before there was sooo much on my plate… school was the first thing to suffer. I ended up dropping out
of Grad (major fail). Then my health…. I lost 45 lbs due to stress and ended up with a blood clot near my liver.
When I got there he made sure he let me know he had someone new, he brought her to our apartment and let her dance and parade across our living room floor. I watched and then called the police, but it was clear they were made for each other… only soulmates could be that desperate try to torment the other party of a broken marriage.
I digress…
I bought the house so it was mine to fix on my own. The means to fix the house was now gone with him and I needed a decent job in Michigan before I could do anything about continuing the plan. Since my ex also walked out on our apartment I went back to Houston to clean up the mess. It took me some time (nearly 3 years) to stabilize and and move back to Michigan.
Only grace and happenstance allowed me to keep possession of the house until I could return, but here I’m trying to make the dream happen on a wing and a prayer. I going to give my all to fix something!
