I accept this was my fault and whilst some feel I am taking the blame this is not the case, I am admitting responsibility and that is different to apportioning blame. I am not responsible for Jade breaking ym nose but i AM responsible for her feeling the way she did. In court it would be common for a person who inflicts injury to prevent further injury to claim self defence and had things progressed yesterday with the police i would have been fully prepared to stand up in court for Jade and say she acted in self defence after a year of emotional injury inflicted by me - not willingly I may add.
This is going to be one of the hardest things i EVER write. its not a copied statues about cancer or rascism of bully...

So there it is the post that made me realise perhaps I wasn't feeling to great after all. and the post that inspired a range of warm responses from people I didn't even imagine would bother to take the minute out of their life to read my rant let alone take another 2 minutes to write a meaningful comment or message. It also resulted in a lengthy discussion with my wife with me saying again that I cannot change what I did in the past (in short I wasn't the most faithful of people in her eyes - I have a slightly lower opinion on the matter but its her feelings that matter in this instance i'm not in a relationship with myself after all.) but i can only influence the future.
This morning I had her in a short bout of tears thinking that she is to blame and it has been intimated by a couple of people too but the truth is without Jade by my side through thin and the very thick I would have possibly snapped a lot sooner - she may be the reason i had the strength to write this whole thing in the first place.
So as I lay here on my bed writing this I consider what to do today - some have suggested seek urgent medical attention but as is always the way with me I think of those who need medical help more than I do - besides I have a doctors appointment tomorrow for my hearing anyway - 2 birds with one stone and all that jazz!
Others have suggested I go for walks or drives or get away but instead I lay here with a crazing headache - the sort I feel you need a jubilee clip tightening around your head to relive - I contemplate the crazy mess that lies before me in the coming hours days and weeks and simply relax Once this is posted my wedding song is going on - Lets see who can remember it - and im off up town with the family to see whats for tea - maybe even buy a lawnmower for the jungle that is my back garden.
Ill be back tonight but until then stay strong and stay safe.!
