I cannot escape the bashing. Today, D5 walks out to the bus and holds onto the mailbox gingerly...a lot of snow and ice at the base of the driveway. W walks out to help her get on the bus and returns.

W: (nasty voice) We're the ONLY HOUSE ON THE BLOCK WITH ICE AT THE BASE OF THE DRIVEWAY!!!!!

(translated, you lazy no good for nothing SOB).

I had a lot of reponses that poppped up in my head:
-yeah..there IS a lot of ice at our house
-get a job, buy some salt and get to work
-if you weren't too busy banging little boys in the backseats of cars....

But that's the little boy inside.

He is silenced.

It hurt...because that is something I'm working on....not letting her affect me...but...I said nothing.
