Breaking point

It's taken me three years to get to his point. Finally tonight I realized that I needed to "vent" and I don't want to pay $300 a pop to see a therapist... also I'd like the feedback.

So I moved to sunny FL with my young family with a job promotion... I did not understand the people or the place at first but over time I have come to an understanding, but some things still bother and alude me - they are real mysteries that keep me awake at night. NB. This may have somehing to do with my confusion... I am originally from across the pond via NY.

Take tonight for example. Great group of women having a girls night out, drinking, eating and everything fun. The usual stuff comes up, reminiscing about the year, husbands, kid gripes the usual and then one girl starts on about her lazy husband... This is where I lose my cool-why do some southern women or from the more southern areas of the country position themselves in these subservient positions in the lives of their families and wonder why they are constantly frustrated, over-run, over worked and under-appreciated? I must add that this particular woman is not from FL but from even more southern climes and she has also become a wonderful friend of mine, so it more out genuine concern and real frustration that this particular vent comes from rather than general let's tar everyone with the same brush.

Let's us see what tomorrow brings with our lives. It will be a sunny day, that is for sure!
