[atilla]

Hey Brother, you aren't alone in feeling like that. There's a shitload of Brothers and Sisters here that go through that also. Myself included. Welcome to this forum, Brother. You are among friendlies here. Vent...we'll listen Brother, we've either been there or are there. Were here.

One thing at a time. Don't eat the whole elephant. Learn to breath properly, from your stomach not your shoulders.

Say "I am perfect."

the only person that can make me feel anything emotion good, bad, happy, angry, sad is me. Don't give the asses the power to make you feel angry it's hard but can be done with a lot of work.

Passive. Aggressive. Passive Aggressive... Yaaaaaay. :banghead:

If you have a right to be angry about something? Man up and f*cking say it. If not? Continuing to stalk about the house in a sulk to attempt to guilt trip me into doing something that is none of your business to begin with? Is a bitch move.

What I'm actually angry about though, is that I give a f*ck. I have enough f*cking guilt surrounding things that I actually deserve, thank you very much.

Hardest thing to learn......Is to Forgive yourself!!! Not easy to do but you can do it. I'll tell you the truth, when you can do it. You will feel better.......Takes a f*cking load off, that we don't need to carry......

Ok, I try to be happy that my kids are fed and bills are payed, but to a certain point I would like to be able to do some stuff that I want or go to cabellas or a gun store and buy a new gun or ammo or even a new attachment for the guns I have. Hell, even a new video game might be nice once in a while. Last night my wife was crunching number and looking up different options for our Disney vacation to make it cheaper. She found something that worked on paper, but this morning I had to call in and set it up and it was $800 more than what she had on paper. Granted about $150 of that we will get back and it's still cheaper than we originally planned and we won't need to buy food so it ends up being a little cheaper, but now I'm sitting here waiting to be blown up at because it wasn't the price she wanted and I didn't press that issue on the phone. I'm half deaf and I hate talking on phones and she knows it. I am starting to wonder if she is setting this crap up just as an excuse to get mad or be passive aggressive with me. I also found out that my high balance credit card is getting the minimum payment, but her card that is less than half of mine is almost payed off. I understand her card is a Disney card so it'll get us some bonuses while we are gone, but I hate that my card that I didn't even want is almost maxed. I don't understand how the money problems are happening and very soon I'm going to put my foot down on this issue. I shouldn't be worried about putting $10 in the van especially since the money I get from the VA is comparable to what my wife makes, and I have the kids 24/7 no breaks, and I don't get sick days. I'm just tired of this high class life style and stress when a middle class life style will allow us to not only get ahead, but to prepare for unforeseen circumstances.

Stertz? 4 words: Accountant = Neutral 3rd Party.

Trust me my brother, worth the fees purely in saving fights and resentment alone. Add in reduced stress? Pfft. Forgetaboutit.

I usually hired a CPA turned SAHM who was going out of their mind with boredom and wanted numbers, even my boring ass numbers, to play with :D Set up an account they had access to, they paid all my bills, apportioned the rest into savings & personal accounts as discussed / that they didn't have access to, and the rest to me to do with as I pleased. Printout each month showing full accounting of everything.

I was at my daughter's graduation banquet, last row, last column table, so nice to have back against the wall.
BUT, the table beside us just WOULD NOT SHUT THE @#@%$ UP during the speeches!!!!

my wife could see me tensing up and had to hold my wrist to stop me from jumping up and going kamikaze ALL over them.

Come on, pay attention..... let everyone else pay attention... it is a graduation ceremony...... it is s special occasion. have some !@#$%^& respect!!!!!!

Yesterday I took the kids to the pool for a while. I let them play and I basically just sat there. Being medicated and swimming aren't a good mix. Well, I took my Fitbit off and had it with my keys, phone, and flip flops. The kids played for a few hours and then we came upstairs and they got a bath and I checked my stuff. I have my keys, phone, flip flops... Can't find my f*cking Fitbit. Try syncing it in the apartment it won't sync, I go by the pool it syncs. I spent hours looking for it still can't find it. I told my wife and of course I get "why are you so irresponsible?" Excuse me? Your fit bit stopped working when you wore it in to the hot tub, and you let yourself burn so bad that now 3 days later you are still red and hot to the touch, but I'm irresponsible because I took 3 kids to the pool and gave them a bath afterwards none of us burnt and I was medicated. Sorry I lost a stupid thing that I didn't want in the first place. The only real reason I care is because it's a $115 and I know my wife will insist that I get another one if that one doesn't turn up.

Friday, I think you might be on to something if I can get the wife to agree. The biggest problem is she is already trying to plan another vacation after our August one that isn't 100% payed off. I understand her wanting to "build memories" but I don't think the stress is worth it.

Found the Fitbit...
