I have my life & I'm thankful for that!My day started out good. Went to breakfast just the 4 of us. My brother in law called us & told us that a friend of his baby was killed in the tornado on Saturday. We have met the people, I hadn't ever gotten to see the baby yet. He was about 4 months old?I was heart broken. I started crying & couldn't stop. That poor poor innocent baby. That poor mother & father. The day before Mother's Day, her very first baby was ripped from her arms. I just can't stand it.

I finally calmed down, we ate, left...Went to get mother in law something for Mothers Day. Visited with his family. Took her flowers & a card. Came home. My husband normally makes my Mothers Day extra special. He kept asking me what I wanted & after the tornadoes happend, I told him I had my family. I didn't need anything. I was fine. Well, I didn't realize I was going to sit at home, be bored, watch t.v. & watch him make an ass out of himself. He drank 3 Smirnoff. He kept being annoying. He isn't mean when he gets tipsy, just annoying. He kept poking at me, and I was already annoyed because he was drinking on MY day?He was like WHATS wrong with you?I was like WELL, I didn't realize we would be sitting on the couch, watching t.v., while you drank it up on MY day?

I was reading a magazine & I found an article about Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. I was extremely excited about it because I have been dealing with this for a really long time. And it explained things in the article that I have been dealing with, that I had no idea were from this syndrome?It causes facial hair growth, I am always naring or plucking (something I don't really care to share, but?) Anyways, I read part of the article to him and the symptoms to him. I was like isn't that crazy???And I have those types of problems. And his response!!!!!!!!!! "So you are 1/2 man"? HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!You can guess he didn't get any when we went to bed last night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I was so pissed at him, I barely talked to him the rest of the night.

He apologized, and I thought I was getting better at accepting, but this one is hard!!!He ruined my day. But, then compared to the current events to the storms I shouldn't even be whining????I feel really stupid, but I have to get this off my chest

{{{{hug}}}}} Amber...you have a good grasp on it...the comparison between the storms and what went on at your house. Been there myself..i think it was good you let him know what went wrong. My husband didn't talk all day...I would say something and get a grunt for an answer..no clue???

Guess who else didn't get any??? LOL

How tragic about the baby! There are no good words for something about that. I'm just terribly, terribly sorry!

I also have PCOS and can relate to how you feel. Your husband's comment was totally inappropriate. It probably came from the booze. PCOS wreaks havoc with your body. Even though I no longer have my ovaries, the syndrome has not disappeared.

It sounds like several of us did not have a good Mothers Day. Maybe our week will get better.

Blessings,

Becca

Hey Amber, I am so sorry your day didn't go as you would have liked it too, have you been to see your doctor about the PCOS? if not you need too, and take the article with you, when your husband is sober, let him know about how you feel.

I am truly sorry that your friends lost their baby, that is rough..
