Another story about bad spousal relationships. I really think I am in a very dysfunctional marriage....with NO way out that is a good option. The lesser of two evils is to stay with him and continue to hear his verbal abuse. I am stronger than he is because I refuse to stoop to his level...most of the time. This morning (like every morning) Bill woke up and started yelling for everyone to wake up. I woke up....I went to the kitchen....I started putting my coffee on....and Bill is sitting at MY computer (AGAIN!) in the kitchen. Most mornings I keep my mouth shut but this morning, I just couldn't. SO, I said "you just want me to wake up so you don't have to do any work". Because while I am working to get the kids breakfast (which Bill is perfectly capable of doing), packing their lunches, giving them their meds, etc. He sits at MY computer on FaceBook eating his GD breakfast. Well- As usual, Bill can't handle the truth and jumps up from his chair and towers over me with his shoulders back (imagine a bully on the playground- that's the visual) and says "I have to eat my breakfast, take a shower, and then take Michael". By the way, I had turned away from him so I didn't have to see his bullying stance (It gets really old, you know). I am sure that did not go over well in his mind. I asked him why he had to be at my computer and not the other computer that I had put there for him. He went back to the computer, unplugged the one I set up for him and said "well, I can take care of that!". Sat down at MY computer again and continued eating his breakfast while on FaceBook. REALLY? How old are you?
He finished breakfast walks over to me, puts his hand on my shoulder (while I was cooking Lexi's eggs) and said "I know you don't think your comments hurt, but they do". He walked off to take a shower. Minutes go by and the phone rings. It was Tanya asking if Michael is ready to go. I had not even seen Michael yet. He is usually sitting at the breakfast table at 7 eating his cereal. Not this morning. I called up and asked if he was ready and he said he wasn't and that they just texted him to ask if he wanted a ride. I told Tanya he wasn't ready- she said she would have to leave then. A couple of minutes later Bill walks in asking who was that? I told him that it was Tanya (I should have lied!!!). Yesterday Bill was really angry because I didn't tell him that Tanya was taking Michael (which I had NO clue about! yet Bill seems to think I keep it secret from him to annoy him!). He went on and on about how I should tell him these things so he didn't have to rush around getting ready. He would be able to enjoy his breakfast, etc. SO, today....after I told him that Michael didn't go with Tanya because he wasn't ready....Bill said "So, you are going to take him then?". I said no "you need to". OH MAN....to make a long BILL RANT short- he said he would rather go in Lexi's direction (opposite direction from work-- yeah, that makes sense!). He went on and on about how communication is important and it would be nice to be told when Michi is getting a ride....yada yada yada. I am so bored with that speech....he is such a blame game guy! He then says "Just to make myself clear" (after he ranted for 5 min--I think I got it!) and I said "I got it". Bill's reply: "That's what Maggie does!". So I said "Ok, let me tell you what I heard"...at which point I summarized his rant. Got it. Check! Off with Michi he went....poor Michi. What an ASS Bill is!
