Hi everyone. Not having much luck with GALing today. Wife has been cleaning out her closet of all the clothes that no longer fit her since she has lost 30 lbs. Also she now fits into dresses that she hasn't worn since 1993! Part of her getting ready to move out. Tomorrow is Easter and we are going to her Grandmothers along with her mom's family. She has been asking for my help and of course I can't seem to say no.
She was on call for work today and when 5:00 came and no call she figured she was off the hook. Well at 6:15 she gets the call and she gets so ANGRY! She ends up leaving the room and screaming to herself and having an imaginary conversation with her boss that called cursing her out. This is the same woman who she went out with a few weeks ago and ended up getting so drunk she had to stay the night and after was so happy because she made some "new friends". (All the other women there are a lot younger than her, including her boss).
So, of course she gets angry at ME and all I did was let her vent and validate her feelings. For the last few years her total energy has been her work. She spends her time at work or with her work friends and texts her work mates every night. Her job is her first priority (other than her dad. She refuses to take time off to vacation with me or the kids but will for him).
Hopefully she is begining to see how dangerous this is. Probably not but until she sees that work can't take the place of family, she'll never get out of her fog. Of course it's her dad that's been telling her that she needs to be a "professional" or see's not doing anything positive with her life. Only hope she's in a better mood when she gets back!
