Throw Up On Me
Do you ever have one of those months that just kind of throws up stress, loneliness, and worry all over you? Then you feel the misplaced need to then throw up unfairness all over the one you love the most? It's not a pretty sight. Yesterday was a throw up all over me day. It just came crashing down all around and I couldn't breathe. So I clawed my way to the surface and when I got there out it spewed. My dear husband was right there in my line of fire. And what did he do? He tried to ignore me at first, then he just let me cry, wail, gnash my teeth. When I finished he promptly went about his fatherly and husbandly business without mentioning my Titantic-sized tantrum. Then he called me right before I went to bed(he works nights) cheerful and sweet like I hadn't been a witch earlier. What did I do to earn such forgiveness? Nothing.
I told him when I met him that he was my own personal miracle from Heavenly Father . . . he still is. Thank you, love. And I'm sorry.

i know how you feel! i bottle up my emotions and every once in a while, they spew out! (y do we do that?!?!) my husband is the same way--always understanding, never condeming! aren't we lucky?!?!? hope everything continues to look up for you!
Way to go John! Hope you are doing fine now Trachelle! This week,, maybe this whole month is going to be like that for me. January can't come soon enough!
What a keeper you have found as your soulmate!
So happy he stood by you during your throw up day!
Try to cheer up, smile and think Merry December thoughts!
Hugs, Les
Oh Trachelle, I so know your throw up day!!! In fact, I have them so often, that I bought a book called 'she's gonna blow!' to help me know that yes, I do love my kids, but I'm really not alone in having rough days, frustrations and even anger issues with life, husband and child rearing! Just know that you too, are not alone in having bad days!! I do hope you are feeling better today!! :)
First, that picture is so fitting.
I often feel like I am in a wilderness and my greatest upset is myself. A blessing of marriage is when a spouse can compensate for your weakness and then you can do the same for him when he needs it.
Isn't it so funny that WE ALL go through this in some form or another! It stinks, but thank goodness for the wonderful and very forgiving people in our life...my husband can get a earful sometimes too! :)
Yah, I suppose that happens to all of us-a woman/mom thing I think. John really is a good guy though-lucky you have him!
Aren't husbands the best for that?! I made a huge calculation error in our budget and after a grocery trip, drug our bank account into the negatives + two seperate $34.00 finance charges from our lovely bank on top of the negative charges made. I tried to find a way to sell things, clothes, and DVDs, but still couldn't replace all the money....so after a horrible day (yesterday)I told Michael what had happened. He should have yelled and screamed at me because this is not the first time it has happened at all. I deserved the wrath of an upset husband, but he didn't get mad at all! I think I ended up being mad at him about not being mad at me! How dare he not yell at me, but I love him all the more for not rubbing my endless list of mistakes and faults in my face.
Even after 34 1/2 years I have these "throw-up" days.....I think your husband is a chip off the ol' block - he's just like his Dad! Thank you for being you!
