THE DAVIS ENTERPRISE
Couple is worlds apart before tying the knot Dear Annie: My fiancee and I have been together for six years, and I am having a hard time understanding where I fit in her life. She claims to love me, but lately, her actions just don’t say that. She puts everyone ahead of me. Last Christmas, we went to her mom’s on the other side of the country and her mom told her she had to introduce me as her friend. She still has contact with her ex-husband, who, after we got together, asked her to send him inappropriate pictures of herself. She contacts him when she gets drunk, about every six months. Then she lies about it, even when I catch her talking to him. Her daughter who is 30 just had her fourth child, and my fiancee devotes time and money to her. Her daughter makes more money than both of us. We spent over $250 on a baby shower for her daughter and only about $50 on my son and his wife when they were expecting their first child. I just feel like I am being used and taken advantage of. We bought a car together last summer, and she put it solely in her name. Every time I ask if we can get my name on the title, she says, “Sure, you pay for it.” I think we should go halves like we did paying for the car. — Scared and Confused Dear Scared and Confused: Actions speak louder than words, and it sounds like she is being selfish and entitled. But it is up to you to stick up for yourself and say that you are not going to give half the money if she doesn’t put the car in your name. As far as how much money was spent on her daughter versus your son, try not to count pennies. It’s about the celebration of the baby and the love that is present, not the amount of money spent on the celebration. I suggest you both go to counseling before you tie the knot. ——— Dear Annie: The information you gave regarding the National Domestic Abuse Hotline is wonderful. In addition, I’d like to encourage Trapped, or any other woman (or man or child!), to reach out to their primary care provider. We are usually aware of our local women’s shelters and can move women and children immediately — often from our
LOST & FOUND
office and out a back door if needed — to a safe place. Trapped can make an appointment with her provider for an annual checkup. If he insists on going into the exam room, after the nurse does blood pressure, etc., she can ask to use the bathroom and slip a prewritten note to the nurse or leave the note in the bathroom. That should prompt the provider to make her husband leave the exam room. Unfortunately, I’ve had to do this too often in my practice. — Nurse Practitioner Who’s Been There Dear Nurse Practitioner: Thank you for your letter. Reaching out to your primary care provider is a wonderful suggestion for those suffering domestic abuse.
A toxic home Dear Annie: I have been with my husband for almost nine years. We have been married for three years. His family was nice to me before the wedding, but after, they became aloof. His daughter is horrible. She has NO respect, not even for my husband. My husband has a lot of money — a few million dollars. He has never told me this, but his friends did. I also found paperwork showing that he has about $2.5 million. We live in a rat hole, to say the least, and with the COVID-19, I lost my job of 46 years. Before we married, I had my own house, car and life. Now I rent my house; my car is in the garage; and my husband is a recluse. I have no money, and the unemployment agency keeps saying I owe them money for the past 10 months. I thought they were supposed to pay me money! My husband is a Scrooge. He’s 68 years old and acts like he’s 98. He does not want to do anything or go anywhere and complains about money all the time. Asking him for grocery money is like pulling teeth. He knows he has me in a rut, as I’m not working. My daughter-in-law has never
PETS
given us a card, a gift or a kind word in the nine years that we have been together. My husband thinks she’s a goddess and treats her like a queen. My husband’s ex-wife went with his brother and divorced him and took him for a pretty penny. I now know that his family is upset because they think I will get some of his money and they won’t get a dime. I’m pretty sad, as I can’t even get grocery money. He always said he was leaving his daughter everything. I made a huge mistake, and with COVID19 and no money, I will lose everything. My daughter-in-law comes over. She has two horrible little kids who won’t sit still in a restaurant or at home. When the kids were diaper age, she would leave dirty diapers around, leave dirty towels on the floor and never bring us anything, not even at Christmas or on birthdays. My daughter-in-law only thinks about herself and only buys clothes, haircuts, cars and houses for herself. Her mother lives near us, and she came for her mom’s birthday, yet she has never given a card for my husband’s birthday. She tells us what she buys her mom. It’s heartbreaking. He never sees his friends and my friends. I have many friends who think he’s weird and that I should go. I’m going crazy. I need help but have no medical coverage at the moment. I’m dying inside. Please tell me what I can do. — Living With Scrooge in Las Vegas Dear Living With Scrooge: I’m sorry that you are living in what sounds like a very toxic house. Focusing on your daughter-inlaw’s and her children’s faults and how horrible they are does very little to dissipate the toxicity. It sounds like there is a lot of blame and anger to go around, including on your end. It is time to consult a professional marriage counselor. That is the best way to figure out whether this marriage is worth saving. You should feel more alive with your partner, not like you are dying inside. ——— Dear Annie: I met this guy on a dating app. He seems to be pretty nice, but he’s moving too fast. We have only been talking for three days, and he has told me he loves me several times. He seems to be

genuine, but I have to protect my heart in case he’s not. I want to hang in there because I don’t want to miss out on a good guy. But he doesn’t want to take things slow. I’m not sure what to do. Please help! — Totally Confused Dear Totally Confused: Part of a healthy relationship is respecting the other person’s personal boundaries. Saying, “I love you” after only three days of talking does seem fast, but you are the only one who knows in your heart if it feels genuine or if it could be reciprocated with time. These are questions for you to ask yourself. And while you’re discovering this, clearly communicate that you would like to slow down as you get to know each other more. If he doesn’t respect that, then you have to move on. The best guy is the one who respects your boundaries.
Showing love from afar Dear Annie: My husband and I are in our early 60s and have been married for eight years. I have four adult children and 11 grandchildren, while he has one son and two grandsons. My children are scattered across the country, while his son lives in the same small town as us. Yesterday, “Derek” texted my husband to ask about our plans for Christmas so he and his family could decide whether to stop by on Christmas Eve or the afternoon of Christmas. The problem is that we don’t want them to stop by at all. We love them, but they’re in total denial about COVID-19. They refuse to wear masks and even brag on social media about “outsmarting” the efforts of store personnel to enforce mask mandates. They have had large family gatherings all year (25+ people in a small house). We haven’t attended any of these events, but we haven’t criticized them either. Nobody has contracted the virus (so far) from participating in the gatherings, which, sadly, reinforces their assertions that the virus is being taken too seriously. My husband and I are relatively healthy but I have COPD, which makes me especially vulnerable. My husband is still working full time, but I’m confident that he’s taking every possible precaution. I’m retired and only go out when it’s absolutely necessary.

What can we do, Annie? Having them visit is very risky for me, but refusing to see them will probably cause a rift between my husband and his son. I feel like it’s a no-win scenario. Any advice would be much appreciated. — Between a Rock & a Hard Place Dear Between a Rock & a Hard Place: Though Christmas has come and gone, the desire to see family and friends remains. And you are correct that having COPD makes you more vulnerable, and your husband should take every measure to protect you. He is taking precautions at work, but now he has to take it a step further and explain to his son about your condition and vulnerability. You are high risk, and his son must respect that. The vaccine is here, and, most likely, this will be the only holiday season that you will not be able to see family. But the most important thing is keeping everyone safe and healthy. The rift that saying no will cause is only temporary, and hopefully, with some proper and loving communication, you can all have a good laugh about it next Christmas. If Derek is adamant about visiting, and your husband thinks it’s OK, then maybe they could do a drive-by in the car to say “hi.” ——— Dear Annie: Thank you for publishing stories about families willing and working to maintain civil relationships after divorce. I was a family law attorney, and then a judge, and then a mediator for over 30 years. And I am sorry that my husband’s ex spends so much energy saying mean things about me, all the while having a “butter wouldn’t melt in my mouth” demeanor. Sometimes, even those of us with the most experience are plagued with those who won’t change. And she has inculcated her children with like attitudes. — Family Law Attorney Dear Family Law: Thank you for your letter. Saying mean things about a children’s father or mother during a divorce is one of the most destructive things you can do for your children. Learning to take responsibility and be generous will make the difference in the long run. And in the meantime, biting one’s tongue might be the best move.

In January 2020, MBK Engineers (MBK), on behalf of the District, identified seven erosion sites along Sutter Slough based on observations from site reconnaissance, geometric analysis from a land survey of the levee, and a bank and bathymetric survey of the channel. The erosion repair sites addressed in the IS/MND are located along the Sutter Slough Levee (Unit 3). The project would either address bank loss, toe scour, and erosion by flattening the waterside bank slope and placing approximately 18- to 24-inch riprap to reestablish the bank slope or monitor conditions within erosion sites. Erosion at the sites typically consists of toe scour within the channel causing erosion and slope instability that progresses into the bank and waterside levee toe. Project construction is anticipated to begin in 2022 and would occur between approximately August 1 to November 30 for 5 consecutive years. RD 999 is the lead agency for the project, under CEQA, and has directed the preparation of an IS on the proposed project in accordance with CEQA
