and i know the drag that motherhood can be sometimes. we all need a time out, some space, some time to NOT be someone's mom, or wife, or employee. this is exacerbated by the elephant in the room......living with an active alcoholic.
Yeah. It's the elephant in the room. I was glad to hear he was working because it's hard to deal with being together at home for a whole weekend, but I got used to getting a break here and there. He worked out of town for the better part of two years and I didn't get any break. Now it's hard to tell whether the break from the kids or him is more important.
Thanks
