This is a very long Part 1 Let me know what you think.

Moving Home

I moved home after my parents passed away from a multi-car pileup. I had been living in a small town in less than thirty minutes from the house they lived in just on the edge of San Antonio. My older sister at the same time was going through a divorce from a cheating husband. Combined with the death of our parents we both were devastated beyond words. I was forty-seven at the time I stand six foot two and weigh two hundred and ten pounds as I run and hit the gym several times a week and my older sister was fifty and is four foot three and weighs in about fifty-three pounds give or take and we had always been close growing up, but later in life we saw each other at family gatherings. Her soon to be ex-husband always seemed to get her away quickly before we could all sit around and share our lives with each other. I always thought he was keeping her away from the family and something about him just did not sit well with us all.

I was going through the house and was in the process of packing up our parents’ items as I was moving into the Master bedroom and all the bedding and clothing we had agreed would be donated to the local women’s shelter. Furniture was being donated to the church they worshiped at, Lynn and I had not even thought of going to church in close to thirty years, but we followed mom and dads wishes. It took us a week to clean the house and clean it top to bottom and repaint to our design plan. Lynn would take her room and use the third bedroom as her office as she worked from home as a medical transcription specialist. Doctors would send her tapes and Lynn would type everything up and email the files back to them. She worked the hours she wanted and I would continue to commute to my work as a local contractor. The large four-car garage would work as my shop and I might even be able to add to it and start working from the house myself and save money without renting a shop in town. It took us a month to get the house set up the way we wanted it to be for us to live and work out of for the time being.

Lynn and her now-ex signed the divorce papers and she wanted nothing to do with him. She told the Judge that she did not want any support and never have any contact with him from that day forth and he started screaming at her he would never let her go and she was his property. The Judge filed criminal charges on the spot and had him arrested for threats of v******e, Lynn told the Judge it was over and she did not want to press charges.
