I wonder how many there are up there waiting. Probably a few dozen.
It's just so d*mn depressing to think of another major change, especially since it affects my husband more than it does me, and he gets so difficult when under stress. I'd rather it be my burden directly, I think.
Naturally I want to step in and fix things quickly and I have to bite my tongue and realize that his family just doesn't operate that way. But it's so difficult knowing that x doesn't know, but y does, and whatever you do don't mention it to z.
It gives me an appreciation for my family where most news, once it left someone's mind, was shouted so loud that x,y,z and every neighbor on the block knew about it.
