Transfer station replacement site sparks debate

By ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com

Auburn Mayor Pete Lewis said his City wasn’t interested in becoming the site for the Algona solid waste transfer station’s replacement – whether east of the

Supermall, or west of Lowe’s.

The Auburn City Council, the mayor added, was to have drafted a resolution last Monday, crystallizing its opposition.

Federal Way resident Robert Yates, whose city is also on King

County’s short list, said he doesn’t see why officials are talking about replacing the Algona station, and went a step further, calling the county’s replacement program a waste of taxpayers’ money.

“What we have has lasted 50

years and is working fine,” Yates said. “Is there a need for rebuilding these things? No, because garbage trucks have never had any problems. They spend maybe five minutes, they dump their load and they’re gone. All of a sudden,

there’s a need? For what?”

“I detect either incompetence or corruption, because there are big, big amounts of money that are going to be spent to build these grand and glorious facilities, [ more STATION page 4 ]

Recall hearing for Pacific mayor set for Oct. 9

By SHAWN SKAGER sskager@auburn-reporter.com

The Committee to Recall Cy Sun must wait until next week to find out whether the King County Superior Court will rule in favor of putting a recall of Pacific’s controversial mayor before the voters.

Sun and committee members appeared in court on Sept. 26, with Superior Court Judge Laura Inveen ruling in favor of Sun’s motion for a continuance of the case Cy Sun and setting a new hearing date for Tuesday, Oct. 9.

“I’m not surprised,” said Don Thomson, chairman of the Committee to Recall Cy Sun. “The judge isn’t familiar with recall law and the lawyer that Sun hired had not had time to put together a brief and also doesn’t understand recall law.”

Inveen ruled that Sun’s lawyer, Tyler Firkins, needed more time to familiarize himself with the case. Firkins said he had just found out that [ more MAYOR page 2 ]

[2] October 5, 2012 he was going to be representing Sun the Friday before the Wednesday hearing.

The committee’s attorney, Jeffery Helsdon, argued the delay would put the City of Pacific’s insurance coverage in jeopardy. Pacific has until Dec. 31 to fill eight vacant City Hall positions or face cancellation of its policy.

Despite the urgency, Inveen moved the hearing back to 10 a.m. Oct. 9, giving Firkins and Sun time to review the 200-page statement of

charges and build their case.

The committee filed its complaint against Sun on Aug. 23, alleging that Sun has created a hostile work environment at City Hall and has put the City at risk of losing its insurance because of vacancies in all of the City’s department head positions.

Since Sun took office in January, all of the department heads have either quit or been fired by the mayor – including the city/clerk, the treasurer/finance director, the community services director, the city engineer, the

building code enforcer and the public works/community development director.

Last week, Sun was issued a Writ of Mandate by Pierce County Superior Court Judge Ronald Culpepper and ordered to hire for the vacant positions or face fines and/or jail time.

If Inveen rules next week in favor of the recall, the committee will have the ballot language for the recall – which has already been prepared by the King County Prosecutor’s Office – and will have to wait 15 days before

beginning to collect the 405 signatures required to put the recall on the ballot.

Unless Sun appeals the decision to the Washington State Supreme Court.

Thomson said if Sun does not appeal and the committee can collect the necessary amount of signatures, the recall could get on the ballot as early as December.

“If that happens, it would be a beautiful Christmas,” Thomson said.

However, indictions are that Sun will challenge the ruling.

“He has expressed several

times that he welcomes the recall,” Thomson said. “But we anticipate him appealing. I don’t anticipate (being on the ballot) before the middle of January.”

Last week, the committee said that Sun had indicated on his blog at www.mayorsun.blogspot.com, that he would appeal.

“I plan to Appeal the Recall! It is NOW a matter of HONOR!” Sun wrote in a post that has since been taken down (an archived copy of the post can be seen at www.scribd.com/ doc/107079532/MayorBlog-Appeal).

Neither Sun nor his attorney returned emails or calls for comment.

An appeal by Sun will likely mean that residents won’t be able to recall him before the insurance deadline on Dec. 31.

“Our only salvation is if our attorney and the city attorney can work on cutting a deal with the insurance company to carry us for another quarter,” Thomson said. “We can’t back off the recall thinking the mandate is going to do the trick. We have to keep pushing on the recall and hope that one of them will do the trick.”

Road Closure: A 24-hour road closure will take place on Mountain View Drive Southwest between West Valley Highway and 56th Avenue South beginning Monday, Oct. 8, and continuing through Friday, Nov. 9, weather depending. During construction the road will be open to local traffic only.

Local traffic delays should be anticipated. The project will resurface the street and construct utility lines. Those needing access to Mountain View Cemetery can do so via 56th Avenue South.

City Hall ready for a makeover

Governor appoints Holman to Council Gov. Chris Gregoire has appointed Auburn City Councilmember John Holman to the Forensic Investigations Council. His four-year term began on Aug. 24. The Forensic Investigations Council oversees the state toxicology laboratory at the Washington State Patrol, studies and recommends improvements in the death investigation system and reports the findings to the Legislature.

Holman retired after a 31-year career in law enforcement with the Port of Seattle.

He grew up in Auburn.

By ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com

Auburn City Hall has a lot of unused space to fill now that the City departments of public works, planning and finance are two years removed to new digs in the 1 Main Street Professional Center across North Division.

Given all that isn’t happening on the first and second floors, the question is what to do with so much vacancy.

Remodeling plans have been talked about since 2005 but the sour economy stuck a monkey wrench into the works.

With last week’s opening of 11 bids on the remodeling contract, the project is officially on the front burner again.

“When this building was built more than 30 years ago, it was built to be fully occupied in 30 years, so that’s what we are talking about right now,” said Auburn Mayor Pete Lewis.

The project is expected to double the public seating capacity in the Council Chambers, in part by removing the back wall and media room.

The Council dais will be moved, turned toward the

northwest and raised to provide a view to the back of the room.

The mayor’s office will be remodeled into the Council Conference Room. The present site of the City Attorney’s office and the Human Resources Department will be remade into administrative offices for the mayor and his staff and the council members. The old finance department will be made into two, perhaps four conference rooms, again, answering the public’s request for more meeting space.

The City Attorney’s office will move up one floor into the old Public Works Department.

Everything upstairs east of the entrance to Public Works will be the legal department; everything to the west of the entrance of old Public Works will be conference and meeting rooms.

Planning and Community Development Director Kevin Snyder said work is expected to get under way in October and finish by the end of the year. more story online… auburn-reporter.com

TAKING FALL COURSES

686689

Because falls pose such a health risk, seniors are advised to educate themselves about how to prevent them.

Twenty-five percent of people aged 70 years and older and half of those aged 80 and older fall each year. Even worse, these same individuals are likely to fall again, which can lead to lifethreatening injuries. The good news is that recent research shows that older individuals who take part in intensive programs to prevent falls are much less likely to fall again. In fact, seniors who worked with specialists to help them build strength and balance and make recommendations for making their homes safer were less than half as likely to fall again as those not receiving fall education.

At PARKSIDE RETIREMENT COMMUNITY, we understand the importance of strength and balance when it comes to our senior residents. We offer many exercise and activity options that help our seniors to achieve and maintain their “personal best”. To learn about our calendar of activities and more, contact us today at (253) 939-1332. You are invited to tour our unique senior community at 2902 I Street, N.E. Our seniors are our #1 priority! Learn how we have earned our superior reputation since 1972.

P.S. At the very least, seniors are advised to secure area rugs and mats in their homes and improve lighting in living areas as fall-prevention steps.

and there’s no need for it,” Yates said.

Yates and Lewis were among 50 to 60 residents and local elected officials who showed up for an open house at the Auburn Senior Activity Center last week after King County announced plans to replace the outdated Algona solid waste transfer station by 2018.

The county’s Municipal Solid Waste Management Advisory Committee presented its list of five

prospects, among them two 19-acre commercial properties, one just west of Lowe’s, the other east of the Supermall.

The leading candidate is said to be in Algona.

King County put together its committee more than two years ago to examine and grade existing transfer stations. Committee members examined, wrote information down, pondered, looked again, compared — and stamped many of the stations “deficient.”

The Algona station was

critiqued for lacking space for vehicles to line up, extended wait times, inability to compact waste, absence of recycling services and other “service deficiencies.” King County’s Solid Waste Transfer and Waste Management Plan calls for its replacement.

The rub, of course, is where.

King County Solid Waste Division has pared the candidates to the locations centrally located, Polly Young, a public involvement coordinator for

Polly Young, a public involvement coordinator for the King County Solid Waste Division, explains reasons why the outdated Algona solid waste transfer station needs to be replaced. ROBERT WHALE, Auburn Reporter KCSWD told the audience, to accommodate the south end’s solid waste service area.

But nothing final.

“I want to make sure you know that no decisions have been made about the siting, whatsoever. We’re still in the informationgathering stage, and that’s why we need to hear from you. … This is exactly why we’re here. To get your input,” Young said.

Eric Richardt of the King County Solid Waste Division noted that modern transfer stations are typically enclosed, ensuring that noise and dust are not really noticeable side effects for residents nearby.

Auburn City Councilman John Holman said he is concerned the issue would degenerate to a battle overwrought with emotion when cool heads are needed. “… We’re talking about economic development, we’re talking about removing prime property from the tax rolls, we’re talking about not getting income to offset the wear and tear

on the roadways,” Holman said. “Site A in Auburn on the north end is next to a daycare, one of the largest in Auburn and has the Shag senior apartment building next to it. It’s also on the approach-departure corridor for Auburn Airport, and birds, garbage and airplanes don’t mix” Federal Way City Councilwoman Dini Duclos said Federal Way’s principal concern with the 320th Street site is its possible traffic impact, and how it may affect a new South King Fire and Rescue building nearby.

“It’s very close to the city, right off I-5 and 320th, which is a major entryway for access into the city and has major congestion already,” Duclos said. “There’s a huge concern about safety.

Because the fire department is right across the street, and when that alarm goes off and there’s a traffic jam and there are trucks out there, and they’re delayed to getting wherever they have to get to, the liability costs will be astronomical against the county.”

Reaching Out Fair is Oct. 11

Representatives from more than 50 community agencies and organizations, colleges and universities, career and technical programs, apprenticeship programs, advanced placement, and business and industry will provide information and answer questions.

Additionally, there will be breakout sessions for parents and students to learn how to pay for college; access colleges, universities, technical programs and apprenticeships; enter innovative and interesting careers; and access youth resources in the community.

Auburn middle school students have the opportunity to win more than $1,400 in scholarships and prizes by visiting resource information displays and attending breakout sessions.

The public is invited to attend the 14th annual Reaching Out Fair on Thursday, Oct. 11 at the Auburn Performing Arts Center, 700 E. Main St. The Cities & Schools Forum hosts the event, designed for Auburn middle school students and their families.

The fair, which runs from 5:30-8:45 p.m., features a resource information fair, a free pizza dinner and dessert, informative breakout sessions, a chance to win $1,400 in scholarships and prizes, and a live finale.

Students and their families have the opportunity to learn how to plan and prepare for high school, college and careers.

GUEST OP

There’s no time to lose

Every week, more than 100 women in our state are diagnosed with breast cancer.

Being diagnosed with this disease is as scary as you can imagine. I would know.

Two years ago, I was diagnosed. Because. I had the unending support of my family, a great job with a compassionate staff, health insurance and – most importantly – an early diagnosis, I was fortunate.

For far too many women – and men – in our community, this is not the case. I hear these stories every day ….

I hear about a woman in Renton, a single parent who received a breast cancer diagnosis. Too sick to work full time, it is a challenge to just keep a roof over her daughter’s head, let alone affording her cancer treatments. A friend in Bellevue shared a story about her cousin who, lacking health insurance, couldn’t afford to pay for breast cancer screenings. She has just been diagnosed with stage-four breast cancer.

When I hear these stories it touches me personally, and it reinforces the urgency of Komen Puget Sound’s mission.

Women and families in our community are hurting today. We need to stop this madness, provide the support that they need today and find a cure for breast cancer now.

Lives are at stake. There is no time to lose.

All of us at Komen Puget Sound bring this personal sense of urgency to the work we do every day, as we have for nearly 20 years. Komen Puget Sound is the single largest provider of breast cancer services to women in Washington State and the largest private provider of free mammograms to low income women. Last year, Komen-funded mammograms resulted in a breast cancer diagnosis for more than 240 women in our community. Our Komen Patient Assistance fund provided financial assistance to more than 500 local, low-income breast cancer patients, covering their basic needs while they undergo treatment.

While I am proud of what we have accomplished, I am even more mindful of all that still needs to be done. Too many of us have lost a wife, a sister, a mother, a daughter, a friend to breast cancer.

While we at Komen certainly had our share of setbacks early this year, the setbacks have only strengthened our sense of urgency.

We refuse to be distracted. There is too much work to do and too many women who rely on our support. Most importantly, many of our donors, sponsors and volunteers understand our urgency and continue to help during this critical time. But it is clear that we need increased support to ensure that every woman faced with breast cancer is not a victim of the setbacks we have experienced.

Together we can win our fight and end breast cancer forever.

High school remodel is costly The school district is requesting $110 million to remodel 240,000 square feet, as well as improvements to the Performing Arts Center (PAC).

I first heard about this about two months ago. Since I was not familiar with the PAC, I went online to the school district’s homepage, and what it said about the Performing Arts Center was “beautiful, state of the art.” I notice that now, when they want money, that has been removed from the site. But you can still go to auburnsymphony.org, where it is described as “a beautiful 1,100-seat, state-of-the-art theater, recognized as one of the top acoustical halls for music performance in the region.”

Since when is “beautiful state-of-art” not good enough for teaching and learning purposes? That is the purpose of school district-owned property, is it not?

We bought our first home in Auburn in 1989. While we owned the house our roof started leaking, so we put on a new roof. The furnace started breaking down on a regular basis, so we replaced it. Eventually the old fuse box started blowing fuses almost daily because it could not handle all of our modern day appliances, so we had the house rewired.

We did not tear our house down. The house is still there, still looks well cared for and appears to be serving another family as well as it served us. I

Remodeling 240,000 square feet, or tearing it down, for $110 million works out to $458 a square foot. Any homeowner who has done any remodeling knows that this is a ridiculous amount of money. They say it will save us $250,000 a year in energy costs, but at that rate it will take more than 400 years to pay for itself.

They tell us that it will not raise our taxes. But what they don’t tell us is that if we say no to this ridiculous request, our property taxes will actually go down. Yes folks, something in your lives, other than your house value, will actually go down.

If you read the bond in its entirety, it says that if they have more money than is needed for Auburn High the school board can use the remainder

for whatever they see fit. That sounds to me like a very good incentive to overstate what they really need. $110 million sounds more like a wish list for Santa than a request to the taxpayers. My suggestion to the school district is to ask us for what they really need and send that wish list to the North Pole.

community. Pacific has been a safe place to raise a family. Mostly quiet streets, a few park spaces, trails by the river and a fairly nice swimming hole for the skilled swimmers. And it is close to high quality schools, shopping and theater. It is easy to commute to Seattle, Tacoma, mountain and ocean. For us, it is an ideal place to raise a family.

Pacific is a family community. It is more than 100 years old. It has been home to an Easter egg hunt for more than 60 years and annual community celebrations and parades during Pacific Days. Good, solid, Norman Rockwellish hometown traditions.

Pacific is this way because of the care, hard work and dedication of its citizens. Numerous elected officials have come and gone over the past 100 years.

It would be impossible to count the number of people who have volunteered their evenings for years to participate on the many boards and commissions.

In addition, the fire department was operated by volunteers for almost 70 years. Pacific’s own hard-working, dedicated community members doing their very best work to help Pacific remain a safe and family oriented community.

spect to women and men who have served before him and current citizens.

I have tried to give him credit. Maybe he really wants to make things better.

But thus far, his actions have not produced results that take Pacific in a positive direction. And time is against him and the City Council now. And time is a ticking time bomb for the residents of our community.

I keep thinking that maybe Cy Sun might take some time and be open minded about his critics. Maybe if he could try to understand the reality of his decisions, he might realize that his opponents have a point.

Maybe he could say to himself: “Well, I really thought I was doing the right thing.

I gave my best, but it is just not working out.”

Right, wrong or indifferent, Mr. Sun’s actions have set up the City of Pacific for failure, and the citizens who live here will pay the price for a very long time.

Mayor just wants to clean house In reference to your Sept.

21 editorial, “It’s time for mayor to resign,” please let me say that it was a well-written, unbiased and informative story.

Your mention of Mayor Sun as an “extraordinary soldier who experienced and survived the horrors of the Korean war” and of his “record that speaks for itself ” and his “body scarred with shrapnel,” is heartwarming to Mayor Sun’s supporters, especially for veterans like me.

The Auburn Youth Soccer Association (AYSA) and Rainier Valley Slammers FC will hold a fundraising auction 6-11 p.m. Oct. 13 at Green River Community College.

The public is invited. Tickets are $35.

Money generated from AYSA’s primary fundraising event provide scholarships for player fees and help defray the cost of uniforms, fields and training for all AYSA players.

He is an authentic and a brave American war hero.

This fact has never been mentioned before. All the disrespect and harsh words that were heaped on the mayor were uncalled for.

He was even called a “gook” and a “freak.”

And from what I understand, on the very first day of his meeting with the City Council, council member Gary Hulsey harshly told him: “First thing in the morning, you come to my house and present your credentials and medals … and if you don’t do that, I’ll have the FBI arrest you.”

Can you imagine a newly-elected city mayor being talked down to in that way by a council member?

I went to see the mayor several weeks ago and we talked briefly. He said it was the well-known “corruption” in City Hall that pushed him to run for mayor. And perhaps it was for this reason that he wanted to “fire” all the people that he suspected were in this “corruption.”

Support Flygare for 30th District Roger Flygare is personal friend, and I felt it important to state how I feel regarding the finding of Roger’s misstated military record. He is running for State Representative in the 30th District Position 1. I know Roger, as do his many personal friends, as a person who would never

intentionally misrepresent himself, or facts important to the public.

I encourage you to communicate with Roger, question and engage him on issues important to you.

You’ll will find out what friends and I already know.

He does not dodge or skirt around tough situations.

He will consider the best course to move forward and go to work helping others understand that position.

Too many times elected people play games with the truth or spin information so that the point is no longer in the discussion. I hate that. It communicates to me they are hiding the truth or misrepresenting the issue.

I know Roger loves the state of Washington and the community he lives in. He wants to serve and improve our government. I believe this issue does not change the facts. Roger has served this country with integrity and honor and was awarded the Purple Heart for injuries received during that service. He is the type of person I want representing me because I know he will present the facts to the best of his ability and face mistakes made with the truth.

What better test could you ask for before electing someone to public office?

School Schedule Client: I lost primary custody with my first child to his father due to false accusations of unfit parenting and a bad living situation. I couldn't defend myself because I could not afford a lawyer. I have some contact with my daughter now and it is limited unsupervised time only once a week. Can I ever regain custody of my child? Is there still hope for me?

"yes and yes" to your questions with an asterisk* of *but..." This means that you can still gain custody back -- YES -- but the distinct circumstances would have to be analyzed by an experienced attorney to give you the best directions on how to fix this. You could be in mediation or a court modification case. You could pursue a review hearing. These are all routes that we can discuss with you, one of which might achieve your end goal. Is there still hope for you? Yes.

breast cancer awareness Some things you should know about breast cancer, and some you can forget

By Elisa Del Rosario Director of grants, education and advocacy, Komen Puget Sound

Every week, 100 Western Washington women are diagnosed with breast can-

cer, which continues to be the second most frequently diagnosed cancer among women in the U.S., after skin cancer.

We don’t yet know the

exact causes of breast cancer, and many myths about breast cancer continue to exist. But probably the best way to prevent and survive a breast cancer diagnosis is to be informed.

All women are at risk for breast cancer. Although this disease is more common in women over the age of 40, younger women can and do get breast cancer as well. To reduce risk, here are some things you should know.

In Support of Cancer Awareness South Sound Insurance Kim Perry 684450

In Support of Cancer Awareness Applebees of Auburn 684231

If you are over 40 years old, have a mammogram.

The American Cancer Society, the National Cancer Institute and Susan G. Komen all agree that women age 40 and older should have mammograms every 1 to 2 years. Early detection is the key to survival. The five-year relative survival rate for breast cancer, when caught early, is 99 percent.

When detected at the latest stage, the survival rate drops to 23 percent.

Know what is normal for you. See your health provider right away if you

notice a lump, swelling, changes in breast size or a new pain in one spot that does not go away.

Live a healthy lifestyle.

Maintain a healthy weight.

Add exercise to your routine. Limit your use of alcohol. Breastfeed, if you can. And, since we live in the Northwest, current studies point to maintaining a normal level of vitamin D as helpful.

However, if you fear that you might be at greater risk for breast cancer because your mother or grandmother had the disease,

you should know that most women diagnosed with breast cancer have no family history of the disease.

Other common misperceptions about breast cancer risk include underwire bras, abortion, plastics, deodorant use, breast implants, fertility drugs, hair dyes and trauma to the breast.

One more thing. If you fear a breast cancer diagnosis is a death sentence, let me tell you that is also not the case. Today, there are nearly 3 million breast cancer survivors living in the U.S. And I am one of them.

No sophomore slump for Shelton

By SHAWN SKAGER sskager@auburn-reporter.com

Most freshmen get a chance to wade into the Division I collegiate football pool.

Not Danny Shelton.

Last year, when the 6-1, 317-pound defensive lineman first reported to the University of Washington, it was immediately made clear to Shelton that much was

expected of him.

A talented and highly recruited Auburn High School star, Shelton got tossed into the deep end right away, seeing his first playing time in the Huskies’ second game of the season against Hawaii at Husky Stadium.

“It was pretty exciting,” Shelton said. [ more Shelton page 11 ]

“I knew I was going to get in and I was just anticipating getting in. When I finally got in, I just tried to do my assignment and make sure I didn’t look like a fool out there.”

Although he certainly took his lumps that first year – including a devastating fumble on a kickoff during the Huskies’ 67-56 Alamo Bowl loss to Baylor – Shelton progressed and matured, playing in all of the Huskies’ games and earning his first start against Washington State in the Apple Cup. This year, the promise of that freshman year is beginning to pay off for Shelton, 19, who is the team’s starting nose tackle as a sophomore.

“I think it was pretty difficult coming in as a freshman … I was pretty young,” Shelton said. “The older guys were so much faster, stronger and just smarter at how they played. I had to grow up my game just to compete against them.”

Shelton credits his teammates, especially fellow defensive linemen Alameda Ta’amu and Everrette Thompson – both now graduated – and seniors Talia Crichton and Semisi Tokolahi with helping him adjust to the flow and physicality of the college game.

Shelton said he also struggled to grasp his role at first.

“It was kind of hard to actually understand our

a career-high 10 tackles.

On Sept. 27, the Husky defense showcased their prowess in a 17-13 win over high-powered Stanford, then the No. 8 team in the country.

“It really didn’t hit me until later when I was going home,” Shelton said. “I felt that the game was still going on. It was just weird.

I saw the coaches really excited. I saw Coach Wilcox (defensive coordinator Justin Wilcox) jumping on Coach Lupoi (defensive line coach Tosh Lupoi). That was pretty exciting to see.

But that didn’t hit me until later on, for some reason. I guess I was still in the game, I was still waiting to go back into the game.”

The win earned the Huskies a No. 23 ranking.

Things won’t get any easier for the Huskies this weekend. UW heads to Eugene, Ore. on Saturday (7:30 p.m., ESPN) looking for another upset, this one against the No. 2 Oregon Ducks.

“I think that Oregon is a beatable team after watching all the film on them,” Shelton said. “They have some weaknesses and they have some strengths, but we have the same. It’s just about what team is going to come in and start fast and finish hard.”

FOOTBALL

football is to be a police officer. But I don’t really know. It’s always interested me since I was a kid. And it’s the second-closest thing to football, being physical and being able to physically tackle people. It’s a pretty cool thing. And being able to do it for a cause, to protect people.”

Right now, though, it is all about focusing on the task at hand and improving on last year’s 7-6 record, which included a 5-4 thirdplace Pac-12 finish.

“Our finish didn’t really bother me,” he said. “I just felt like I had a lot to learn.

It was my first year and I felt like I had three other years to go. There were some things that I learned later in the season that I wish I had learned earlier.

“I feel that the coaches did a really good job (this summer) bringing us together as a defense. The offense, too,” he said. “We really bonded together and got to know the coaches, too. That’s a big part of our season right now. Just them knowing our strengths and weaknesses.”

So far for the Huskies, it’s paid off. UW is 3-1, with its only loss coming at No. 4 LSU. Despite the 41-13 loss in Death Valley, Shelton put together a fine game against the Tigers, notching

I was with my ex-wife for almost eighteen years. We were married almost eleven years. Have two wonderful children. Sounds good right? Now for the last three years of our marriage, I did everything completely wrong? We had some marital problems; mainly caused by me, dah! I was running away from it all. I quit communicating with her. I was never home, and if I was there, I was either working or out drinking. I did NOT make time for my kids. I trash talked her about everything. You think of it, I probably said or did it! I was a top notch jerk. Some may have better words for me but this is a published article. Not to say I don’t deserve it.

During the past couple of years my ex-wife was building a very strong friendship with another woman. In my convoluted mind they were more than friends. I believed they were having a relationship, you know partners. Nothing wrong with that except she was my wife. So every time I went out I ended up telling someone the story (my perception of it anyway). I did not intend to trash talk my wife (at the time) but I was. All of our friends had heard the stories (several times). I was destroying her reputation. I was not thinking or acting clearly. I was being selfish and hurtful. Most of you who have heard this story now can probably guess who I am. Never did it cross my mind that they were just really close friends. The friend was emotionally supporting to my ex-wife, when I was emotionally bankrupt! My anger and embarrassment would not let me see this. I didn’t realize what I had done to my exwife, until a few weeks ago. I want to say to my ex-wife, “I’m

so very sorry to have drug your name through the mud like this!” I would

also like to say to her friend that” I’m sorry to you,” as well. I also need to tell those of you who heard my nonsense, “I’m sorry for perpetuating a lie that was made up in my delusional and drunken mind.” My Ex-wife deserves your respect, understanding and for everyone to stop talking about her. I on the other hand deserve whatever is sent my way! The harsher the better!!!!!

So why do this publicly and now? I figured that I trash talked her publicly, I should apologize publicly. Why now? I have had time to reflect, and know what a %$#@! &* I had been. My ex-wife has probably heard this as well but never out like this.

At the beginning, I stated “All of you can learn from my mistake.” I will give all of you some basic Don’ts, when you are having relationship problems. They’ll seem easy but believe me they can be very difficult to follow: r Don’t stop communicating. r Don’t run from or avoid the problems or real issues. r Don’t go to a bar, it doesn’t have the answers. What it does have is more problems. r Don’t go to another person(cheat) r Don’t start argument just to have a reason to leave. r Don’t focus on all the negative stuff. That makes it easy to forget why you were together in the first place. r Don’t forget the important things that make your significant other special to you. (If you do, they will end up with someone else. I don’t wish this on anyone) r Last but not least, don’t forget about the Kids (if you have them). I do and did push them away. That is another story to come.

I would like to tell you what you need to do to repair your relationships, but I can NOT! I know how I handled it and it did NOT work. I would like to say to my ex-wife, our family, friends, mutual acquaintances, and anyone who knows of this story, “I am truly SORRY for misleading you!”
