Back to Reality

 Where do I even begin. Its been one night. Ive been told Im ugly, lazy and self centered. Im selfish because I didnt fold some laundry.. She went on vacation for 2 nights and I worked and relaxed a little after 2 long hard and hot days. I would do more for her but why? Its not like she does anything for me. She criticizes me, makes fun of me and puts me down (in front of our kids). I really pissed her off when I said I would rather have a messy house and a happy marriage. Yes she does everything.

Please try to keep it to that theres not much in the debit account. Well she went over thats fine. She calls me from the grocery store "what kind of beer should i get for my friends coming over for the bbq?" Why are we buying beer? We took money last month from our kids savings account and still havent paid that fully back... 9 days til pay...
