Sunset, dolly thank you so much for your responses! It means so much to have kinship!
Sunset come join our moms thread in newcomers support! I think you'll lo e it it's really helpful in those early days
congrats on your Desision to get sober.
As far as the talk with the hubby it was a kind of the deaf ears again. But I didn't get frustrated I'm going to revisit it in a few days with a different approach. When I told him of my frustration he laughed and said moms everywhere are doing what your doing (he is correct) that I'm lucky to be able to stay home ( correct) and they won't need me 24/7 forever ( correct) these were things I already knew. I was looking for validation and offers of help. Maybe do the occasional bath or cook a dinner or take them to the park. But I've got a little plan scheming
I'm going to ask him to trade places with me for one day. I can easily run his business ( I did it in the past) I'm going to leave at 8 expecting a cooked breakfast and packed lunch formyself
and be home at 530 awaiting dinner and a clean house with happy children. I then will get to go into the home office watch tv and pretend to work while be does baths plays does the 3 hour bedtime routine
that might work if my words aren't being heard.
childish maybe but I'd really like him too see how isolating my life can be and have more understanding.
