Well I have no idea where to begin. It was wonderful to have some family here from England. Then I had the next week off to spend it with DH and go do some stuff. But Dh spent $350 on a new lens and other stuff for his camera. GGGRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!! well that cut into our spending money for our vacation. So needless to say There is no vacation for me. And now that DH's back is out we cant even go for a drive thru the mountains. I think he is feeling a bit better today, it's like at some moments he seems like he is milking it. But I am probably just saying that cause I have my nose out of joint.
Dh said you are on vacation you are not working. I told him oh no I am not. I told him that he gets to escape from his job, but when do I get to escape? I still cook, do laundry, do dishes, clean the house take out the trash and so on. So where is my vacation? Dh did all sorts of things when our family was here. I just catered to them all and worked my butt of.
The other thing is I am feeling guilty about whining that I didn't even get to go any where even a day trip. So I am mentally beating my self up for being selfish. Does that make any sense?

(((((((((((Jo)))))))))))) I know how you feel. When I was married my ex used to give me the same line of crap. I worked full time and kept up with the house. And when the house wasn't just so, or dinner wasn't ready at "this" time, or the kids didn't look nice enough for him, I was the one who heard about it. He worked full time and didn't have time to do such things. I think it's a guy thing, I really do. So, just try to overlook his flip comments. Easier said then done I know, but try. You know the amount of work you do and you know that you are deserving of a vacation........and YES you are deserving of one. So just stick to your guns on that.
And vent here as much as you need to. We are here for you anytime. I hope you get to feeling better soon.
Peace, Love & Light,

Hey Jo! I'm sorry your vaca didn't turn out so great. Just wanted to give you hugs and let you know I am listening! Now that I am single, I can look back and see how many things were "wrong" and how many I would do differently.
Next time, go somewhere by yourself!!! I know that's sometimes hard, but it can still be fun. Or at least that iswhat I am learning.
Love and Hugs,
