And he would make me miserable for that one day that he came home instead of going to a bar. The next day he'd be right back to the way it normally is for us. He's out, impressing the girls and being a big shot with the guys in the bar. He did have a bad episode about a yr ago. He got really drunk and one of his friends tried to drive him home but he wouldn't allow it. The friend followed him home and when he got out of his truck he actually fell out and hit his head on the driveway. The friend tried to help but was shoved away and locked out of my house by him. ( I was out at the time with my daughter). The friend called me to come home which I did. The whole side of his face was road rash, not to mention he was physically sick for two days after. I was actually happy at the time because I thought ok, this will stop him. Nope! Only stopped him for about 4 days.
