Thanks 2bhappy, I will try your suggestions too. I have set up my own living room in another room, my little escape where I watch tv and read. That helps me.
The hard part for me is that I can't depend on H to help with S. I try to plan things with friends, but H usually beats me to the punch. On weeknights, he isn't very helpful with homework, bath, bedtime, it's all on me. So, I pretty much feel like a single mom right now. But I do my best to find my me time.
The reality of our world right now is hard to accept sometimes. H won concert tickets from a radio station yesterday for a concert tonight. Of course, I'm not invited. Why in the world would he take his wife?? Sigh. And of course I wonder, is he really taking that guy from work? But I chug on, put it out of my mind, it's in someone else's hands right now. If there is anything different for me to know, it will come out. I also hope he isn't able to make up these crazy stories to me and my son's face, but I guess he would be the one to live with that, right?
Thanks again for your ideas to survive each day. I'll take any advise!
