[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 239729, member: 3444"] Thanks everyone :) I am home, but not alone -- two difficult child's with tons of homework and a bored easy child. But I managed to get her to read her library book and she's quiety engrossed in that on the couch right now. difficult child 1 is in his room working on his assignments that are due tomorrow (and he's a bit behind on these, so who knows how late he'll be up). difficult child 2 is at the dining room table where I can help him stay focused and on track. He is behind as well in his assignments. husband took difficult child 2 to basketball practice this afternoon and then to grab a quick bite to eat. They didn't get home until 6:45pm, which is a bit irritating since practice ended at 5pm or so and difficult child 2 has all this homework, not to mention the fact that it only left husband with 15 minutes to shower and get his stuff together for his sleep study before he needed to leave to get there on time. Sometimes he is so good at managing his time (like at work) and other times he is SUCH a difficult child! Sigh. At least it IS quiet. I got to read the paper while helping difficult child 2 with his math. I may even get to watch some TV later when everyone's in bed. I probably won't see husband until sometime tomorrow night, since he's going straight to work after the study in the morning and then going out with some friends to a happy hour (tho he only drinks diet Coke) after work. He was amazingly clueless about how his outburst today affected me. He was acting as if nothing unusual had happened at all! I shouldn't be surprised, I guess, because that's been the modus operandi for the past 19 years. He has changed, but some days it feels like it's been at a glacial pace and at great cost to me. Well, as Scarlet would say, "Tomorrow is another day!" [/QUOTE]
