KAW..glad you had a pretty good time on vacation..just being able to relax alittle helps...and if I am not missing something you did mention to CAW that you were taking extra day and maybe you could have a picnic(I can't get how to piece and quote!) So I think she wanted to find a way to let some anger out and use it to test you when she wants to go out alone. DOes she not work outside the home..or ever go shopping alone..out with friends..From what she says it sounds like you keep her chained up(now I suppose that could be fun)Does her condition cause any kind of memory loss, so that maybe she did not remember your suggestions? Just trying to throw things out...give her the benefit of the doubt..but sorry that you are frustrated..just living with with her sounds like it's own roller coaster.
