Quote: Heapmom: Things are definitely heating up around there. They do that at my place, too, when little domestic things become battlegrounds. Isn't it kind of funny that, if they would just ML to us, we would probably be more appreciative, do more things around the house in a happy, pleasant manner, be more energetic, etc.?
All I can say is, keep pushing. What's the worst thing that could happen?
The worst that could happen is H would start taking his anger/frustration out on the kids. No he wouldn't hit them, but he does get VERY strict, and loud.
Domestic stuff has been the battleground for a long time. H meets me often at the door to tell me what I've left undone, or done wrong that day. Or makes comments like the cup, that he can't help because I don't do things the way he wants them done. The difference this time was that I said something.

I've 'laid low' for a couple of days since the cup convo - H got very quiet and defensive, so I felt I lost a lot of ground. Last night I noticed again how much it bothers me when I don't do something, before I would be happy that things had calmed down, now I get mad at myself for letting him run the show, so I guess I'm getting stronger.
I've decided I definately have to loose 20-30lbs. I've been telling myself I 'pull it off well', but it has been bothering me, and I need all the confidence I can get.
I've been feelling kinda sh*tty...lonely and exhausted. Winter seems to be setting in already, and I don't deal well on 6 hrs sleep a night (especially when I've not been kept up for sex )
