Day Thirty Five - Forgive My Rant
4/22/2020 11:02 PM
Needing to vent.

Woke up at 2am needing to pee. Got up, pee'd and dropped back into bed. Lockett and Duke usually sleep in William & Ellen's room and sometimes on a rare occasion one or the other will choose to sleep in my room or out on the couch. After crawling back into bed I heard a dog wandering up and down the hallway. I got up and found Lockett outside my door getting ready to puke. No time to get her outside ... she let go. Duke showed up then wanting to eat it of course. Got them both in my room and cleaned up the mess. Dog food ... she over eats sometimes. Back in my room both dogs had made their way to my bed so I just crawled in with them and tried to go back to sleep which I must of done sooner or later.

I woke up to the sound of William yelling for Ellen, which he does every morning when he wakes up. The dogs jump off my bed wanting out to go see their mom and pop. I let them out just as Ellen is walking by heading to the bathroom. The dogs jump on William happy to see him. From the door of my room I let him know that Lockett had gotten sick at 2am and that I cleaned it up and they spent the rest of the night in my room. Instead of like maybe "sorry that happened, thanks for cleaning it up", I get ..... "why didn't you wake me up?". I explained that it was 2 in the morning and there was no need to wake him up. If it had been something other than straight dog food, I may have woken him, but I'm perfectly capable of cleaning up dog puke. Back into my room.

About ten minutes later I hear William outside taking a bong hit so I go outside as well. Ellen is outside too. Before I get to my chair to sit down William says: "the next time one of the dogs gets sick in the middle of the night, wake me up. They're our dogs, not yours and I have a right to know when they get sick." I kinda lost my shit. I normally try not to snap. I make the attempt to take a couple deep breaths to calm and get thoughts together. That wasn't the case today. With my finger pointed at his face, told him I wasn't about to put up with him getting pissy with me when I felt I had done a good thing by not waking them. Ellen has sleeping issues and would never get back to sleep if I woke them. Did he think of that?" My speech went on a bit longer than that but I'll spare you.

My question is this. Did I do something wrong? I don't see it. He has a way of making me feel stupid. He can be abrupt. It's his nature. But shit, I'm tired of it. I wanna move. I want out of here.

My apologies for the vent but hopefully now I can just leave it here.

Stay safe.

Peace.
