Came home from second job to a mad house.
Wife screaming at me, kids,dogs. Said she felt bad and stressed out. Medicine not working, weather, blah blah. Did no housework at all, all day. No supper, food and snacks everywhere. It was bad. I mean bad.
So....
I did all the laundry (2 hrs), fed kids, cleaned up, vacuumed and mopped whole house, played music in my headphones whole time to not hear any complaints. I then played lego batman with my 7 yr old and got in bed w him til he went to sleep, after prayers.
I drank while doing this. Had a little run going, but on days like that, I'll forgive myself, and move on. No way I could've kept my sanity and done all that, after working on an ambulance in the rain all day.
I know that I need to get better at handling stress, but the only other thing I could have done is leave, or starting yelling. No one could deal with that, and I'm not a benzos person. I'd needed half a bottle ! Lol
Anyway, bad evening, but I'm through it and on to a new day.
Man I hate laundry !!!
