It took me two hours to finish up my assignment once the kids went to bed, tomorrow I have five to do but I will be in my room.

My husband has a computer that he said he couldn't let us touch once he put "secret data" on it. He invited me to go into the bedroom to work on my assignment on it. I said, "I'm not allowed to. Why don't you make a separate log-in so I won't access or be able to access private information?"

He said I was acting so psychotic he thought I needed his computer. He'd not create the separate account for me. He wasn't meaning it that I could borrow it.

Why the f- didn't he just come out and do something with the kids? Damn him!

I love every single one of these children but I am exhausted. I really just wanted my husband to come out and read to the kids or play a game of Monopoly or something. When he did come out it was to watch a movie with them. My computer is in the living room (my house is tiny) and I was not happy with the commotion.
