If you want you can hang out in my bathroom--it needs cleaned. Out out out of the house is what you need to do. Go to the library, go to Borders, go to the animal shelter, go to a car dealer and test drive cars just for the heck of it! Anything to get you out of the house for a little bit. I know your situation, but when you say hiding out, are just avoiding confrontation? (At least their not like my mom, who would say "why were you in the bathroom so long? What were you doing? It's not normal to be in there so long. Your sister has never spent 30 minutes in the bathroom. Do you need to see a doctor?) Point is, sweety, the only reason you should be hiding out in the bathroom is if you and your husband are taking a shower together!! Of course, I bet you could get some sleep in there since you aren't sleeping well on the couch! Do something for you--all those things are free (you don't even have to pay for the gas when you test drive!) and will just get you on your own for a bit. (If nothing else, hope you at least smiled! )
