Somewhere along the line, my husband decided he was perfect and doesn't make mistakes. So he doesn't apologize either. Perfect people don't think they have to. This is quite a flaw. I have once or twice, with tremendous effort, gotten him to admit that he was wrong. I thought he would break saying it. I don't insist of apologies much because they are so hard to get. Most of the time, I can get a promise that he won't do that thing in the future. Then when he does it again, I can tell him he was wrong to do it!

Hello, Tal,

Words are but one way to show appreciation, as everyone has said. (Wish I had known that a year or so ago.)

Have you read Dr. Gary Chapman's The Five Love Languages? He touches on this in his various books on this topic.

(Thanks for looking in on me today.)

Nocodes,

Thank you for dropping in. Don't post a lot just when something comes up. Thanks for the tip on the book. I will look into that.

Things were hectic this wkend, He had a show (advertising) to do all weekend. I ended up getting stranded on the parkway and had to have my dad pick me up. H was at the show. My car is the devil. Anyways, Things were crazy so not much was accomplished.. I was with him on sat. without the kids, but we were busy selling. It was an ok day. Ya know what is funny, He had one of his friends/business person there too, and he made a comment to H that if H wasn't around he would get me drunk... He was of course kidding, but I actually enjoyed seeing the look on H's face. lol...

no need for thanks nocodes, I know how hard things have been for you, wanted to make sure you were ok.

Keeps things intersesting and makes them do some thinking doesn't it.

That look on H's face must have been priceless.

How are YOU doing, and what are you doing for you?

Jak has a very good point. You have to remember to take care of yourself too.

Thanks jak and no codes... things are crazy here right now.

car is on the fritz again, so ive been using my mom's car. Funds are really tight right now so I don't see us fixing it soon. We are talking at least 3k to get it fixed anyways, stress is just another issue becuase of the work shortage around here... so I don't get much time do anything else but try and get some work for the business.

I know boring stuff, its enough just to stay out of eachother's way right now, so its just sticking to trying to balance everything.

so thats it.. I do have more to say but im so tired I can't get it out right now.

thanks again...

hey tal, do me a favor.

Promise me you will do 2 things: 1) get the kids out in the good weather and get them good and tired so then you can 2) sleep.

Sorry about the financial/work issues. Makes everything else harder to tackle with those things looming. Thinking about you!

thanks lwb, your sweet. some days i don't think i can keep it together. ive had chest pains for two days, its just probably stress. its so hard for me, i don't like to show weakness to anybody (except you guys \:\) )... my h knows how I haven't been feeling, doesn't comment on it at all, i feel as if im drifting off somewhere else. I wish i could just take my kids and go. But i can't they would be so devastated.

They are sleeping right now, like babies... I can't sleep because im worried about money.. h was supposes to get paid from the job tonight and didn't now i have to worry about calling the bank tomorrow to cover my checks.. sometimes i think he thinks Im full of crap, i told him that it was important for him to get the money.. it pisses me off to know end.

Between money and his attitude, i just don't know.. i guess im in a depression mode now.

Thanks for thinking of me.

((((((((TAL)))))))))

Hope you have a better day today. Finances are bad everywhere I think. My H works on the side with a building contractor and hasn't started yet this year as things are slow.

Hang in there honey!
