Writing 101, Day 18: Compose a series of anecdotes

The Smeigh Family Vignette:

15 years old A and I meet at a skating rink. He asked the little brother of one of his friends to ask me to skate.

We skated, he worked there. we became a couple. I started working there.

We broke up, had separate boyfriends and girlfriends. The 2 of them got together.

We got back together. He forced me by guilt into having sex. I got pregnant although I didn’t know it them. I was a naïve 17 yr old. I miscarried.

We eventually married, after he went into the Marine Corp. I moved down to NC and we found a place to live during training.

I got pregnant for real this time and gave birth.

I got pregnant again with 2 daughter.

3rd time was the boy. He is 10 years younger than his older sister and born in NJ not NC.

Married 23 years and divorced for 16.

4 grandchildren. Both daughters have 2 children each.
