What I like best is their reliability and quality.” “I can trust them!” Dr. Evan Reasor Flue Season 527 3331 THE Chimney Professionals Marriage problems disguised as money problems Dear Mary, I've been a fan of yours since the early 1990s. I have a ques- tion. Not for you, but for Harold, your husband. How did he do it? Why did you two stay together? Why didn't he hate you for what you did? You humiliated him on a regular basis with your behavior, and then he was on the brink of bankruptcy for no fault of his own. I'm in a similar situation. I'm married to a former credit card junkie, and I know that he's only a former credit card junkie because he doesn't have access to credit any- more. In the early '90s and beyond, I was trying to get out of debt. Every time I would pull us out of that quicksand, he would gleefully cannonball back in. My wages have been garnished. I get humiliating calls at work. My checking account was seized. (While I was on a business trip, I had to survive for three days on $10.) He did the crime, and I get the time. I have tried, but I still hate him. I can't even move out because of the wage garnishment because I can't rent my own place on what's left. What would you suggest? -- Prisoner Dear Prisoner, I think I can adequately respond for my husband by asking you, What were his choices? He could have left me, but he is a godly man of integrity. He took our marriage vows very seriously. More than that, he loves me deeply. He could have broken my arm, but he is not a violent man. He never would touch me in a harmful way. His last option was to scream, yell, plead, beg and nag. And he did plenty of that. That being said, though I did take full responsibility for my actions and did the hard work to restore and recover, the truth is that we were in it together. While he was not 100 percent aware of every- thing I was doing, he went along. He signed to refinance the house and to lease multiple cars, for example. No situ- ation, not even yours, is completely one-sided. You need to examine your culpability in all of this, as minor as it might be. I have so little information from your letter, but it is curious to me that you refer to the '90s. That's more than a decade ago. If he is abusing your joint bank account still, why don't you open a second account in your name only so that you can manage the income you do have better? You shouldn't do this in secret. And if he has income, perhaps he should agree to allow you to manage it, as well, and then put him on a strict allowance. Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate I am certainly not a marriage counselor, but I know someone who is. Dr. Willard Harley is the author of the book "His Needs, Her Needs." I sug- gest you get that and read it as soon as possible. Dr. Harley, a marriage coun- selor in Minneapolis, also has an excellent website, http://www.Marriage- Builders.com. If I had to guess, I would say that you have a serious mar- riage problem. The money is just a symptom. If you ever have had any love for this man, you can find it again. Mary Hunt is the founder of www.DebtProofLiving.com and author of 18 books, including her best-selling classic "Debt-Proof Living."

COURT ROUND-UP The following defen- dants were sentenced in Tehama County Superior Court, according to the Tehama County District Attorney’s Office: —————— Recent State Prison Commitments: • Wesley Marshall Stan- dridge was given a suspend- ed sentence of four years, eight months in state prison for sale of a controlled sub- stance, possession for sale of a controlled substance. Agents used a confiden- tial informant to purchase methamphetamine from Standridge. Agent served a search warrant at Stan- dridge’s residence and located methamphetamine. • Michael Richard Mehringer was sentenced to two years in state prison for possession of concentrated cannabis. A deputy conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle dri- ven by Mehringer. Inside the vehicle the deputy locat- ed a bag of concentrated cannabis. Recent County Jail Commitments: • Geoffrey Brian Pomeroy was sentenced to 270 days in Tehama County Jail for second degree com- mercial burglary. Pomeroy was caught in a grocery store hiding liquor in his pants. • Jacob Dylan Cozine was sentenced to 270 days in Tehama County Jail for two counts of first degree The KIXE Easy Street Sweepstakes drawing came to an end on Friday Jan. 14. The winner of the $2,500 in gift cards went to Lori Rice of Chico. She is a student with two daughters; part of her winnings will go to taking the girls to Disneyland. She will be replacing her broken residential burglary. Officers respond to a liquor store after receiving a report the windows of the business had been smashed out and subjects were flee- ing the scene. Upon arrival officers located Cozine and two other subjects behind some buildings near the location. Officers were advised Cozine and two subjects were attempting to steal alcohol from the liquor store when they smashed out the windows with rocks and then fled the scene after the alarm went off. Cozine entered a resi- dence on three separate occasions and stole several items from the home each time. • Justin Duane Rich was sentenced to 180 days in Tehama County Jail for brandishing at a person in a motor vehicle. Officers receive a report that the victim and Rich were traveling in separate cars on the highway. The victim drove around Rich in the passing lane at which time Rich began flashing his lights at the victim. The victim decided to pull to the side of the road to Rich pass. Rich then drove up next to the victim and point- ed a gun at him before dri- ving away. • Mario Anthony Albro was sentenced to 60 days in Tehama County Jail for possession of a controlled substance. Albro was originally TV. This has been a lean year and winning this prize was wonderful, she said. Second Place winner is Deb Landford of Red- ding; she will receive granted formal probation. He violated his probation when he tested positive for methamphetamine. Recent Proposition 36 Commitments: Note: All cases wherein a defendant is sentenced per the terms of Proposition 36 are not at the request of the Tehama County District Attorney’s Office. Per the requirements of Proposition 36, a defendant who pos- sesses drugs cannot be sen- tenced to confinement time in jail or prison. Instead, the court must place defendant on probation and require drug treatment alone. Per the requirements of Propo- sition 36, only upon a third drug related probation vio- lation may the court impose confinement time. In the event the defendant violates a non-drug related term of probation the court may then elect to sentence defen- dant to jail or prison. The Tehama County District Attorney’s Office contends that each criminal case is unique and that in certain, specific, cases a defendant should be sen- tenced to a combination of drug treatment and jail time. We further contend that in other specific cases where a defendant has an extensive criminal record and/or a his- tory of non-compliance with either previous grants of probation or previous grants of drug treatment, a state prison sentence should properly be imposed. PBS sweepstakes won by CSU Chico student $150 in gift cards from Olive Garden. And the third place winner is John Francis Jr. of Igo. KIXE would like to thank the sponsors of this event.
