Oh, Bliss *insert sarcasm here*
Oh, Bliss *insert sarcasm here*
It is a complete and utter joy to be stuck 8 hours out of town with a husband that just spent 7 of those 8 hours bitching about me, our life, our work, our prospects for the future (bleak of course), everything he could think of. Once at the hotel, he proceeded to continue on and off for the next 3 hours. Demanding answers and participation from someone (me) who had taken ambien to SLEEP because we have a long friggin' job to do today.
It will be easy to not drink today. After the job we have to drive that 8 hours back (oh bliss! Oh joy!) and I'm counting on driving a good bit if not all of it. In fact, the idea of drinking today kind of repulses me and I don't know why.
I don't understand why we can't get through a rough weekend and talk on Monday. I am in total hell. I am happy to work through our issues but not when there is already stress heaped on us.
If you're of the praying ilk, I'll take all you got for a peaceful day, successful evening, and safe drive back without any insanity.
Thanks for letting me rant.

Aw, sunrise... :ghug2 I'm so sorry. At least you're saying it will be easy not to drink today! That's good.
FWIW, I'm with you on the "wait and talk when the immediate stress is over" thing. My ex used to pull that crap with me all the time... pick a fight while I was studying for a test, or some similar crap. It stinks. It's like - let's deal with THIS and then we can talk about this other stuff.
I wish you peace and a safe drive home.

Thanks for the prayers, all... we survived the weekend. The trip home was long, but blessedly quiet and free of arguing. It's been a long couple days but I did not drink. I am sitting up alone this evening just trying to recover from everything and it's like releasing a huge sigh. I have a great calm this evening and no urge to pick up. It's a good feeling.
