Sorry, couldn't help but laugh. I pictured him SO clearly in my mind, wasn't surprised at all later when you said you thought he was hungover.

Negative energy, well said. And I'm sorry that's what he brought. You're right I think to realize that this is his problem, and I think you're equally right to not want to have to be impacted by his problem anymore.

I can't think of anything that I think would help you, just to say I'm sorry you keep getting this kind of stuff from him. And maybe to say that his behavior just makes it clear how sick he really is. To have a wife as amazing as you, to have children as lovely as yours, and STILL not be able to get your act together enough to realize how good you could have it and be able to cherish all of you a bit? There's some serious sickness going on there.

Thinking about you and wishing you some time of peace.

Oh, and great sympathies on the paper grading, one teacher to another. I've got some of my own to grade before this Christmas break is over.

Blessings,

Bill
