It was very hard-weird today. Shit it is almost 5 AM... I had come to such good terms and hubs said a horrible thing. Kids were being bratty, I have teen, 8 yo, and toddler home, coping with teen girl moving out in the last few weeks. Hubs was max stress and they woke me yelling and fighting, a toddler came crying to me. Toddler and all the yelling was anxiety attack then and there. I can't get my head on straight and trying to focus to hubs being mad... I was simply told those kids need a mother. Oh, that hurt. 10 hours later I came back home. He took off work as kids were too much and why we are moving.
But again I saw a move forward. I left instead of engagment, I talked and expressed feelings and had hubs do the same, I told him I knew his stress and validated it. Yes, no jobs, only so much in the bank, moving cross country... And me :) But let us look at productive ways to cope together. It was a good assult but it hurt and I told him in my work and workbooks I got to a a good place, I don't want or can be drug down. He came around.
Tired but feeling better about it, and his sis kicked him in the butt :) That always helps. |
