Not sure what to write about, so much beating around in my brain. Life with the husband has been relatively quiet. Thank You God! I think I'm slowly learning to deal with his condition better. Finally realizing that it's not me he's angry or aggravated at has helped. Learning to not take his silence or moodiness personally has helped too. I'm a very serious person by nature, so learning to be lighter and let things slid off my back has been hard.
Life has been crazy, having two school age children and a bipolar husband is challenging at times. My son has has a hard time concentraiting and getting homework done in a timely manner often creates problems. The husband doesn't always deal with this nightly ritual well. He sometimes get very aggravated and short tempered or will just add to the problem by playing video games and messing with the Internet while my son and I are trying to get the work done. This distracts my son and makes it harder on me to get him to pay attention. Then the husband gets angry when I ask him to turn the games off or the computer. UGH, I feel like I'm at constant odds with one of them. My poor sweet daughter is usually left to play with her toys and has learned it's better to stay out of the kitchen entirely during all of this.
