In the last few years, I haven't had the baggage to deal with. I don't have to spend the holiday walking on eggs. I don't have to worry about him blowing himself and the kids up with the fireworks (lighting them while drunk).
Now, this is independence day!
I hope you all have a great 4th of July! |
Hi,
My father is an alcoholic, and the holidays with him used to be terrible. I was always worried what he would do or say if I did or said something he didn't like. He has calmed down in his old age now, but those days were horrible.
Isn't it great? The peace of mind you and your kids have now.
Happy 4th
