Well the vacation with the kids was pretty stressful and the looming school year too. Really effecting my outlook and interactions with W. Find myself angry about all the crazy scheduling we need to do just to get to work now. And it bothers me that she's unaffected by it. (Nothing as maddening as a happy, indifferent person, when you're upset) We keep taking these "vacations" in the hope of making family memories but they are more stressful than work and certainly don't bring us together.

Man, I really don't want to go through this again.
