I am again dealing with severe mood swings.

Long story..but we have some very grouchy-hard-to get-along-with next door neighbors. A year ago they threatened the police because our dogs were barking to play ball with them before 6 PM. So we put up a big wooden privacy fence. We left up our chain link on the back side.

This week we discovered they had taken down OUR chain link fince. (and the shed is now exposed where the dogs might dig under it and escape our yard.) Well...I wanted to speak the the man when he was not with his grouchy wifey. So when he drove in from work yesterday, I said..I am going over to talk to him politely about the fence. Hubby yelled WAIT. I did not wait. I went. I talked calmly and politely and got to the bottom. HE thought that fence belonged to his property and he'd be glad to put it back.

I thought it as handled. When i got in...my hubby was LIVID. He started screaming in my face how I did the total opposite of what he told me to do when he said WAIT and I went on over. He grabbed my arms, got in my face as close as he could and SCREMED at how i better NEVEr tell him no and do something he told me not to do or he will kill me.

He did not talk to me all evening...was again pouting. ANd he was sober.

That's tough to handle. That's tough to detach from...and I am not sure I deserved it at all.

today I have to go to work at 4. He's already drinking...and he already went over and talked to the lady...told her we woudl put up the last 2 wooden panels and they won't have to put up the chain link. He brought up the fact we woudl not have had to do it in the first place if she had not complained. etc. But for the first time I can rememebr, she was NICE.

So I am nto sure what I will come home to after work. Perhaps the hubby will be mad. Perhaps relieved he does nto have to put back the chain link fince.

we'll see.

I know it was a mood swing. There was no reason for him to get that angry at me to threaten to kill me. What on earth can I do abut thses episodes????

PS...while I was writing this, he left for the liquor store. I hope the police stop him. Maybe it will slow him down. I dont want to get that call from them that he's hurt somebody.
