I don't make enough money from my business to support myself and my 2 kids. It totally sucks. He's started drinking really heavily again lately and could have burned the house down last week. My life sucks....
I've been there. I was in college, had an almost 2-year-old and didn't think I could leave. Then I had that epiphany where it just hit me that I could leave and somehow everything would be fine. So I did. Literally picked up my son and walked out the door and went to my parents' house. That was almost 10 years ago and I met my now-husband just 3 months later and have been super happy and content ever since. Don't waste another day, there is always a way!
Ziola, that totally sucks!!
I'm not going to offer any advice, I'm sure you know what needs to be done. That's a shitty situation though..I'm sorry you're going through that.
edit- on a side note.....THIS FUCKING WEEK IS OVER AND THE VAN IS GONE!!! And the shop is closed tomorrow because we're all getting hammered and cooking meat on sticks!
