Now what???
So, this morning, my "R"AH asks me why I am so tired. I respond by saying that the kids have been taking turns being sick all week long. Also been doing a lot of running for basketball practice, orthodontist, and Dr. and VERY busy with work. On top of all of that, I tell him, his snoring was crazy loud last night so I didn't sleep well.
He says "What?? I was snoring loud?"
I say, "Yes, very loud last night. I just couldn't sleep."
He says "I thought you said my drinking was the cause of my excessive snoring. And we didn't get along because of my drinking. Now, I am not drinking and we still don't get along...and I still snore. Now what are you going to blame everything on?"
I just didn't know how to respond. He is right. I used to blame everything on his drinking. Now, I know better. But, I don't want to admit to him that it is not the cause...that may be a green light to start again. How do I use this comment as a way to explain to him that there is much more work for him to do in addition to not drinking?
