My name is Evelyn. I'm a typical housewife, I guess. In a typical (I guess) marriage. We have 3 great kids. A son who is 13, and daughters who are 7 and 6. My husband is Dallas. Dallas can charm your socks off. He can convince an artic explorer he needs an air conditioning unit. You'd think with that kind of talent - he'd sell cars or something where the commission would be high. You'd be wrong. You see, Dallas likes to wake up in the morning and have a beer. Then another and another. In a typical day Dallas will drink at least a 6 pack - sometimes alot more - but usually about 8 beers before he crashes into bed. Dallas is a high functioning drunk. Most people have no idea what he does. He drinks and drives and in the past 5 yrs has only been pulled over once for weaving. That time he refused a breath alyzer (sp) test and spent the night in jail. That was on the advice of his dad - attorney and disgraced judge Dallas Sr. - who has told him to never blow if he is pulled over...never leave a mark if you hit your wife...and if you are going to cheat on your wife - be sure to do it at least 30 miles away.
I bet you are wondering why I want to leave this family? LOL.
We have been married 13 yrs now. For 13 yrs I have been controlled. Controlled by not having my own way of earning money. By not having my name on any accounts. By not having my own car - etc.
I filed for divorce less than a month ago - (we've lived apart now for over a year) - ready to go on this journey with me? Drama by drama - detailing each saga for your amusement and hopefully edification...
