No she is flying to OH to to visit and attend the Browns / Bengles toilet bowl game. When it comes to her sepnding "our money" she works and gets a paycheck, so I have to choose that battle wisely.

Actually we had a "talk" this morning, since she slept on the couch again. I told her if she doesn't want to pretend for the sake of the kids, we should just tell them, tell all our friends and everyone else; why sould I protect her, when she's the one destroying the home? She got all defensive. You folks are right about distorting the past. I wont get into details but her memory is totally fu**ed up.

As to the Diseny ticket, turns out its for D17 to go with her HS band friend, but it was a good "conversation" starter. I flat out told her she was not thinking rationally about money or anything else. I told her I have no intention of selling the house, and I am not going to file D; she has to do it. I asked her why if she was planning her escape we went into debt last summer for a new pool, No rational answer of course.

I tried MWD's agrument on her. Five years ago we went one cruise w/o kids and had wonderful a second honeymoon. I presented the scenarion that if the captian had tolder her then that in five years she would be involved with OM and seekinga D what would she have said? Then I fast forwarded and I asked her if that same captain said today that in five more years your marriage would be stronger and better than ever before what would she say. Kind laid that out there and told her she's destroying the family and not me. Then I left for work.

I'm so pissed right now, I wish she'd just pack her sh*t and move out. This is probaly going to be a Christmas to forget. Help me out here DBers: why the hell should I keep protecting her?
