More on hubby and update on kids
Posted by ivy | Under Ivy Unleashed Sunday Nov 25, 2007It seems like all I write about lately are the problems with my husband. Frankly thats whats taking up the majority of my life lately so thats all I have to write about. Its very consuming. Very overhwelming and very mind blowing. Things have just spun out of control.
As far as I know he is clean. However his erratic behavior continues. He has not quit his job yet but is steadily looking for a job traveling. When asked why he wants to travel he says he just needs away from here. I ask if its me. He says no its his dad. See the inlaws live next door and drive you insane. Seriously insane. They go through our garbage. Its a very screwed up situation. I’m at my wits end with them and they bug him 100x more than they do me about stuff.
His behavior is different. He isnt the same person. I swear to you he is depressed and possibly suicidal. He swears he is not depressed. He has nothing to be depressed about but his actions speak louder than words and they are clear signs of depression. Part of me for a second wonders if its my fault. All of this started when I refused to care anymore. However I can’t take the blame for his behavior and actions. I can’t let it fall on me. HE did this.. NOT ME.
On another note. The kids are all doing well.. They were out of school 3 days this past week for the holiday. They go back on monday and I can’t wait. I need some peace and quiet. I REALLY need some peace and quiet. Everyone is well and doing okay.
I’ll share some pictures..

Your kids are adorable! What beautiful, big brown eyes!!! Thanks for sharing the pictures!
So your husband wants to travel to get away from HIS family, but expects YOU to stay home and put up with them?
You really can’t move away from them? To another part of town? If it’s gotten so bad that he wants to stay away, shouldn’t moving an option?
My husband travels about 1/2 the time, and I’m used to it, although I’d rather have him home, as I’m sure you do, too.
Beeautiful children, Ivy. You are doing that right! And, no, it isn’t your fault for dh’s mood. I agree that consideration for a move seems like it would be the answer to living too close to the in-laws. I couldn’t stand that. I remember living in an upstairs apartment with my in-laws beneath us once. it was murder! We moved within a year. A marriage needs a certain amount of privacy that’s for sure. It could account a lot for dh’s behavior having his parent’s “watching” his every move.
Of course, you have reached the “I don’t care” mode — Is it possible that you want to move yourself ? or can you make it without him? Just wondering. My thoughts are with you. Michele
i’m sorry you’re having such troubles with your hubby. i hope that he is able to come to grips with the fact that he raelly may be depressed.
your kids are way too cute!!
