Journal Entry for January 26, 2007 Mood
Friday, January 26, 2007
He is doing really well today. Sleeping now (thank God). Don't get me wrong, he really is a good man and wants to be anywhere in his life other than stuck in the house all day and that probably adds to his frustrations. Add a 9 and 11 year old to the mix as well as me working all of the time and you have a big mess..lol. I have to work though or we wouldn't have affordable insurance. I work for the city. They have good benefits.

    My husband had a bad car wreck about 11 years ago. He has really bad back problems now. Last year when he was tested the Dr. told me he did not know how he had lived like he has. My husband complains about his pain mostly in the last couple of years. He has used that as an excuse and I usually know when it's about him hurting. I have severe arthiritis and a growth hormone deficiency...kind of along the lines of fibermalasia (sp). So I know pain plays a big role in our attitudes. But I don't use that as an excuse when and I don't get angry and take it out on him when I'm in pain. He does say that this, and the fact that he is starting a new company that they play a role and his not wanting to participate in the children's lives that I mentor. But, I know it's because he doesn't like the grandmother of 2 of the kids. I feel like my dreams are being ripped away from me b/c if he doesn't want it, I sure can't bring the children around here and let him treat them rude. They've been here when he's gone off on me and it scared the terribly. I want so very badly for my husband and I to share the same interests. We used to. We both have taken in kids in our marriage and now we finally have a chance to have children in our lives and he wants no part of it. It breaks my heart...

    It is good that you see your husbands condition for what it is. A medical condition that he can't help. It drives me nuts when I'm having a breakdown and people say, "snap out of it". You can't snap out these things any easier than someone can snap out of cancer. Lean on The Lord and he will give you strength.
