Halloween night

Picked the kids.
Got them to my place. Made nachos and got them in there costumes.
Wife and i agreed id take them around my apartment complex first then I'd drop them off and she'd take them around thier neighbor.

Things never go as planned. I get them to their house and my son wants me to stay and go with them.

My wife agrees and i can't tell him no.

They got so much candy. Afterwards i got him a bath and ready for bed. I read him a story and tucked them both in.

As i was about to leave my wife is holding a shot of whiskey.

We set on the steps.

You look like crap she says.

Thanks i smile and take the shot from her.

She tells me our daughter is worried im not eating enough or at all and still worrys about my up coming appointment for my heart.

Ive always struggled with eating. My parents used food as a punishment. But that's a story for another day.

I don't mean to worry her. I tell her.

Try and do better. Im tired of calming her down. Get your shit together.
She walks inside.

I finished my shot alone
What a almost prefect night.
