It was a time we enjoyed together. Decorations. The lights and tree were more my responsibility and everything else was hers. But we did it together. It was fun and special.
As I write I could only imagine how many expletives would be flying out her mouth if and when she attempted to put up lights if the situation were reversed. Probably close to as many times as I bit my tongue while going through the boxes (yes boxes … at least 6 very big ones) of christmas decorations.
It was something we did together and very much enjoyed. All of my desire to do any of this is completely gone. The ONLY reason I’m doing it is for the kids. We have personally engraved stocking holders for god sake. How the f@#% am I supposed to deal with this. These had better be the hardest days I ever have to deal with. I cannot imagine dealing with anything worse.
I haven’t even gotten to more than putting up the tree. No lights, no garland, no ornaments. I know what’s in that box of ornaments and it’s going to take a lot of strength to open it up. There are lights outside and a few other things around. I don’t even know where half the shit is supposed to go. Can I get some help here honey?
And on a totally unrelated topic, but the 2nd D in my Double D title …
How many people are actually going to entertain the possibility of divorce. WTF! Especially at or around 30 with young kids. WTF!
How unfortunate they are. Especially those who have brought children into the world. Why did they bother in the first place? Why are they so weak? Do they think it will make things better for ANYONE involved? Are they even thinking?
Every time someone mentions it I get sick to my stomach. Just as bad as I feel when I am forced to deal with Christmas decorations by myself without the one I loved.
I just don’t understand how people see this as an option. I suppose there are reasons for this but for a good majority I’m certain it’s all petty immature bullshit … I guarantee it.
We had something truly special. This never would have been an option for us. EVER! So why was everything we had taken from us?
