I love that my childless friends dumped me when I had a kid and my friends with kids dumped me because my kid is strange.
I love that he screamed at me for 25 minutes because I flushed the toilet instead of him. (He had left the room.)
I love headbanging.
I love that whatever I do is wrong and "bad mommy".
I love "Goodnight Moon". Every.single.night.
I love that my husband would rather play Wii bowling than give the kid a bath.
I love working all day, getting screamed at, coming home, getting screamed at, and then cleaning the house.

*sigh*

When I was 10 and I imagined my life, this was so not it. But every so often, I get a little bit of a good day. That's what keeps me going. That and my anti-anxiety drug.

One more step, Mariposa. Then one more step.

Is there noone who can give you some relief?

I agree with gbollard. Leave the house for some hours to have time to yourself on the weekends.

Is there an aspie support group near you?

All the besr!
