Long answer: I am under heavy stress and trying not to project it onto my husband. I am just taking it hour by hour and hoping that things will remain fairly stable. Which they are not, as the owner has had his new fiancé here and they don't sleep together. (Another can of worms for another time.) So, now the living room, where my workstation is located, has someone on the couch sleeping. I usually get up around 5-6 a.m.. (Not by choice, my body does it.) I cannot access my computer or the kitchen because the layout is one of those 'open air' things and there is nothing between either room. They are both night owls and the owner can easily sleep till noon if nothing interrupts. So, there is that in addition to the other stuff. I am about to explode over this intrusion into my life, especially since I am the one paying the price of his inadequacies. The fact that this is even more blatant evidence that our time is growing short and we have no idea where we are going to go with a part time income and a sickly failure who needs care he cannot afford does not help matter at all.
