That's so hard for me when even a day goes by like that. I can't imagine it going on in that fashion for years. What I never got was why it is that we would never treat friends like that, but husbands and wife get into it like that? I get that way with my wife too, but so far we are always able to right the ship. Shit, man. Keep grinding at the job and doing what's right by the kids and be safe out there.
