Ya know ... this is not a valid excuse why I cheated on my husband, ... however he came home at dinner time after having a few beer with his buddy and complained about different things that are bugging him right now like usual after he drinks. Of course he says really stupid stuff ... and he bbq'd but I didn't think the wings were cooked enough so I took over the bbq'ing as I wanted us eating thoroughly cooked food. Well there was a big blow out, how he wanted to cook for me but he's never good enough ... yada yada yada .. and I was not thinking that at all! My whole point was just that our supper was cooked right!! Then he goes into another room and bumbles really mean stuff under his breath but loud enough to hear him. He swears his head off, and at one point I heard him say "You ruined my whole _____ life!" Of course I blow up and tell him that he cannot handle his booze, he always has been this way! He used to drink A LOT more than he does now, but he is a mean drunk, period! His buddy Danny would come over EVERY single day that they had off, (they worked at the same place, same shift, same days off) and they would sit in the garage from like noon hour til after supper drinking, sometimes even straight through the night!! Then he would mentally abuse me EVERY SINGLE TIME he drank! I am this and I am that ... I don't even want to say half the things he has called me since even before we were married. He continually belittled me, even when I did not cheat on him. We got married in 2005. I would work and then sit here in the house with my dogs night after night, and my stomach would be really sick because I knew he was drinking all day/eve so I knew he would be coming in sooner or later to pick a fight. Many nights I would go to sleep only to wake up to him starting a fight with me while in a dead sleep ... or even have woken up at 3am to the stereo cranked to the max downstairs in our living room! He really is a great guy ... a VERY hard worker, a great supporter ... but I often wonder if this is why I fell into the arms of another man? I don't mean to say that was my excuse ... but something drove me to it!!!!! I wanted to leave so many times, but the next day when he sobers up he kisses my butt and is as nice as pie! I have spent many of a night at our local emergency department with bad nerves. Often they would call in the crisis team. My head has really been played throughout this marriage let me tell ya.
I know that I too am far from perfect, however the nights in the last few years before God when I did drink, I came home and went straight to bed because I didn't want to scrap with him.
Dear Father In Heaven
Please be with Heather and bring her comfort and peace, help her to rest in Your arms of love and I ask that You take control in her life and soften her husbands heart. Please help him to want to not drink and help him to want help to stop. Help him to find salvation in You also and give his heart to You. Help Heather to be a shining example for her husband that would make him want to learn more about You. Please bring Your peace to this house and help them to remember their first love they had for each other. Please make their marriage strong in You. In Jesus Name Amen
I am back from clothes shopping and now I am exhausted. I do not like going shopping for clothes because of so many other people. Man, I am glad that is over with. I did have a productive day, went to see my grandma who ended up in the ER yesterday because she fell and ended up with two black eyes (she is okay, though), took my mom to lunch, got my shopping done, and now I am here with everybody here. You guys have been super busy today.
Did you find something for the banquet?

If I saw that happen I would stop and see if people are okay, I don't like watching people fall. The only thing I enjoy watching is older couples especially the men helping their wives, I think its kinda cute and sweet
The only kind of shopping I enjoy is grocery shopping because I come up with several different ideas for recipes and it is so much fun as long as it isn't right before a major holiday.

Watching people fall was not the fun part....the fun part was watching the looks everyone gave her and her pulling this box on a string....I stopped and helped them, I just thought the whole idea was crazy....I enjoy watching to see crazy and unusual things happen, it is also nice seeing the couples help each other....

Yes, I think so. Like most women I can't make up my mind so I bought several tops and on the night of the banquet I have options. I first went to a second hand store and bought most of them and only spent about thirty dollars worth of clothes. I got a really cute cardigan and some adorable blouses, and a pair of shoes. I kind of figured that with getting some choices of clothes I can try everything on and see which I like best. Then I went to Target and bought some new slacks.(The only thing I bought new) I am a savvy shopper because I think ahead.

It seems as though others get it, but I am confused
Please help me understand
Is there little wonder we lose kids when we try to keep the church as it was in in the 1800's?
A friend and I were just chuckling about that the other day.... People saying they were keeping their church Holy... just like the early church, with an organ and a piano and regular choir robes.
It seems as though others get it, but I am confused
They are talking about Percy Sledge songs....then she asks if anyone wants a cookie...

Phil was fussing at me just a tad...not in a mean but funny way and I explained myself to him and then as a peace offering offered him a cookie....lol Of which Kody thought it was a Blond cookie.....and I have been laughing a bunch at Kody's remark cause the kid is funny.....

Okay, I am still confused.
She knows the song When a Man Loves a Woman by Percy Sledge
She just heard who sang it
She knows songs, just not who sings them and her daughter helps her with that
too bad Percy Sledge died, but we all will
There was another song that she never heard before.
give her a break for not knowing these songs and musicians, because she is blond
then she offers a cookie as a peace offering, but it doesn't have blond hair.
