Due to money constraints, He Who Shall Not Be Named, still lives at home.
So today He says, "I feel sick, I think I'll stay home today."
My first reaction is to think, Well I guess I'll stay home too and take care of him. I have nothing drastic to do today besides chores and laundry. It was instinct to think that way.
How does a man go from being sick to all of a sudden having a bunch of things that need to be done? He decides that today is the day to start looking into apartments and finalizing the preparations for the divorce.
And just like that, a cold bucket of water falls into my conscience. What do I care that He's sick. So here I am doing laundry and taking care of the kids.
I'll tell you though, there is nothing else like watching someone you still care about, walk around and talk about moving on with so much nonchalance that will make you feel like shit, as if the last ten years were a mere blip in their radar.
I don't think today will be a good day.
Ouch. I'm glad you're not taking care of him though. What an ass.
ReplyDeleteToday will be a good day.. Make it a good day. Do not let him determine how wonderful your day will be.. Be blessed you woke up, your kids are breathing and healthy. He will not cloud over your beautiful day.. You have so much in your life others wish they had! We all go through trials and tribulations in life, its how much stronger we come out of it that counts! :)
