Last night while I was at a friend's house DH read my diary. This is a disaster! He is mad at me and barely speaking to me. A little backstory... We have been seeing a counselor and she suggested I write the things that upset me down so I can get my angry feelings out without hurting anyone. So the things written were not kind. I complained about DH and SD and called them both names. I NEVER thought he would read it. My heart is broken that he invaded my privacy and now he knows all my darkest thoughts.

Stuck with SD in quarantine

Last winter SD bio sister got COVID at BM house so naturally I thought SD should stay with BM for the quarantine (why expose two households right?) This turned out to be an absolute fight with BM. DH got texts like "I can't believe your going to allow a little illness stop you from seeing your daughter." We had to go as far as contacting my boss and having her give me the protocol for quarantine for my work. Then we photographed it and sent it to BM. She gave in and kept SD at home for 5 days then took her for a rapid Covid test that came back negative.

Long story short I have been very unhappy in my marriage because my SD10 drives me absolutely crazy. I feel nauseous when I know she will be at our house. I know, I am the horrible step parent who has no empathy. So I have been trying to disengage to 1. Keep my sanity 2.Prevent me from blowing up at DH or my SD. 3. Save my marriage.
