Giving Both of Us a Break

The straw that broke that camels back came today when Caroline and I got into a major fight.  We were both ugly to each other and I realized afterwards that I need a break from her and she needs a break from me and probably her sisters.  So we are sending her to a sleep away camp next week.  Even though it is a financial strain for us,  at this point, my own sanity depends on it.  Being a caregiver 24/7 for a teenager with bipolar disorder is exhausting, and honestly, I am completely depleted.  So we are digging into our savings and sending her.  She is very excited about this.  So am I.  Hopefully she will come back without another concussion!
