Wish I brought more clothes

I broke out of quarantine hell and came to visit my 23 yr old son who has been working from home for 6 weeks. I came on Friday night and planned on leaving Sunday morning(today). Im like a different person here, relaxed with my kid and no skids. He said to me last night 'what time do you have to leave tomorrow? Or do you have to leave?' Im running out of clean clothes but I can stay one more day! Unfortunately the skids are gone with BM...all 4 of them for the 1st time EVERand Im missing out on that. I still want to stay with my kiddo one more day.

Perhaps you really need to think about the you that you want to be. Constant stress or happy. You mention it being great away from skids, but also no mention of "I miss my husband".

Sounds like you should move ALL your things somewhere other than where skids (and husband) are.

How dirty could your outer clothing be?  It has only been a weekend and I doubt that you spent it planting potatoes!  Your underwear can be handwashed and will air dry over night.  If you really need your clothing to be washed, where does your son do his laundry?  And if you need more, Amazon delivers overnight.  That is no reason to leave if you want to stay.

I'm glad you had a great few days. This could be your life, if you choose to take it. I would be questioning if the reason that I HAD to return was legitamate or not.  There are ways around most things. Clothes are easy - buy some (walmart should have some basics to keep you going), wash your stuff in the sink with dish soap if you're desparate will do just fine or heck if you'd fit in them, wear some of your son's clothes until you can get some of your own. We're all just staying at home anyway - we don't need to look our best. 

Imagine what a week away would feel like, not just an extra day. Maybe you could even have enough time to find yourself a new place to live...

I agree with the others. If you still have feelings for your husband, then don't divorce, just live apart. The situation with your DH and skids is untenable.

You were spitting at doors and dreaming of pouring pee on laundry.  Why in the world would you go back to hell???

I don't understand your issue. If your clothes is dirty, wash it? Do your laundry? Wash underwear and socks in a sink? Then you'll have clean clothes. Order new clothes online.  Run to Meijer or Wallmart, they sell clothes. Not fashionable but you are staying home anyways. How much clothes do you need? People are staying home most of the time 

not having enough clothes isn't a big reason to leave and go where you don't want to be
