When the day comes that they recognize my "about to blow" point before I explode, it'll be a happy one. Right now, they don't notice that I'm there, even if I say outright that I'm about to lose it. Poor guys...they must think I'm just attacking out of left field. :) Can you tell we took last week off of school pretty much? We'll see if the calm holds starting tomorrow when the books come back out. @Joe – one of the skills I’d like my boys to have before they move out is the ability to read a female’s body language correctly.

I've had glimpses of myself, too, that don't make me proud. I think you handled the reconciliation really well.Ahh, that limit! That point we reach where one more question, demand, or other slip can send us over the edge. It's only human, I suppose, but knowing that doesn't make it any easier to walk that edge. Superb post!
