Me and my Dad had a rather nasty fight today
He's stressed over my Mom and of course that just brings up everything else that is stressing him in his life. A few of their friends invited themselves over, and my Dad completely freaked out. He began cleaning out the living room hard core, muttering at about Mom the whole time. I tried to calm him down, which made him even more pissed off.
Oddly I was calm through the whole thing, reminding him that he was the one that was going overboard. He said some rather nasty things, like that he wish he would have a heart attack so he wouldn't have to deal with everything, how my Mom is lazy (Not True), How I've been useless and need to help more, about how he's the only one with a job and he stays so late because he doesn't want to come home.
A few of the comment's stung, but I still didn't angry. I'm not even angry now. I'm just tired. What else can I do? Getting angry won't help anything, and I know Dad is just worried about Mom.... *shrug*
After the bit goes down for a nap I think I'm going to go clean the kitchen. If nothing else it will give me something to do and calm my Dad down a bit.
