Hi Mona, I have been doing better since I tried your experiment. I have seconds of sadness but I am not dwelling on it. The one change I have made was to keep busy doing things. I don't sit all night posting on this website. I exercise now, that eats up an hour. I want to cook more healthy meals. My kids are fussy but I will do it anyway.
I have to work on my self confidence and self esteem. Caliguy posted before what I knew were problems. I have never addressed them. They are FOO problems. I guess if you post long enough people can see you clearly, warts and all.
Mona thank you for supporting me. I am better with you in my life. Be well
Mutatio, I am glad you are feeling better. I am going to try Mona's experiment. I bet it would work in other situations as well, I am thinking this could be a helpful tool. I am really doing well this week but keeping it on standby for a bad day.
Mu, I am glad to hear that you are focusing on yourself more. That is awesome. I too have had a lot of insecurities. XW said that she wouldn't bring things up to me because of that. So, I am right with you on that.
I haven't seen the guy with the cummins ranger yet. I think he is on nights this week, but I haven't forgotten you!
35 3 boys Not my circus, not my monkeys anymore....
Mu, I've been on this walk for a bit, and I'm doing pretty well most days, but always need to follow through on my goals and not fall into survival mode. I think it will be easier once H moves out to work on my co-dependency.
Keep working on you and the confidence will come.
***hugs***

Mutatio? You need to stop by Mona's thread, when you get a chance. You were a hot topic over there today. I think you'll love it! You are well-liked, my friend.
Dear Ancaire, you are a important friend. Your kindness I will never forget. I enjoyed Mona's thread. It felt good to feel the love. I cherish the connection I have with you ladies. I savor each day I can share with you. Be well dear friend
Hi Di, We want you on the bus. You ladies are so kind to me, your such beautiful souls. It took my marriage to fall apart for me to be honest and open with my emotions. I used to hold it all in, why, because I was a fool.
