He's not an ax murderer......

I was feeling kind of bad about my last blog...especially my talking about Carl's 'past' being the center of all of our disagreements. Let me clarify if I may. It's not that Carl's past is awful...he's never been in jail, never killed anyone, never hurt anyone.....it's just that I NEVER had to deal with a past at all. As many of you know, Rick and I met when we were 13 and 17....and we were together for 36 years....so it was just me and Rick. No exes, no ex-girlfriends....no nothing. Dealing with a past is all new to me but we are moving forward by leaps and bounds. I've asked everything you could ask...sorry Carl....and I know things I probably would rather not know... but I asked ! So...it is what it is. Carl and I are blissfully happy 99% of the time. He really is a wonderful man...so smart and funny and affectionate.( Lucky for me, nobody from his 'past' realized this.) I love the way he loves me and the way he loves my kids and grand kids. And the way he plays guitar and sings to me.He is very good to me...and I love him very much !
