And you probably will never understand, but in reality it's not important anyway. You can't change how she feels any more than she can stop you from drinking.

Perhaps her anger isn't just because of taking care of the kids - maybe it's a culmination of your relapses and drinking that have brought this situation on in the first place. But again, it really doesn't matter.

What does matter is doing your best to stay sober. That in itself will go a long way in eventually healing some of the wounds that were opened in the past.
