I asked him if it was that easy to give it up, why hasn't he done it for his rapidly failing health. He told me that his health was not important but his kids having food was. LOL....ok....I expect that he will come home drunk today and say that he will start his plan on Monday. Of course Monday is a holiday and so it will become Tuesday....I do not know if his body will hold up to 4 more days of binge drinking. He is really in a very bad place at the moment.
As for me? I suggested I get a job which he quickly poopooed. I have worked about 14 MONTHS of the 24 years we have been married and he will just "not have it". Today, I spent the day filling out applications. This afternoon, I have 3 interviews set up for next week. I will be fully employed by next Friday. That is my goal!!!

I finally got the nerve to post a little about my daughter on another board and it felt pretty good to get some of that out. I cannot deal with all of this at once so just me and one day at a time right now....
