Checking in on you and saying hi. Sorry things are a litte rough for you this week.
You always provide me such a nice pat on the back would love to return the favor.
So here's a solid rap rap rap on your shoulder. Strong shoulder -- bears a lot.
Hug hug hug.
You're amazing! You show awesome patience and loving-kindness (as the Buddhists say), and these are healing your family.
Hope your W's spirits lift a little.
Meanwhile, keep your own spirits up with what makes you happy and keeps you sane.
Did you get over to marriagebusters.com? I'm slowly letting some of that wisdom sink in. I like the uplifting tone of the articles but get a little sad that (around my house) we can't have "radical honesty" yet. My H keeps his little secrets, too. Keeping secrets is a marriage-buster.
Slowly. Everything happens a lot more slowly than I like to operate. But I will list and count the positives (like you do, KAW) and let some "areas of the painting" remain unfinished for now.
There will be time to fill them in later.
I liked the best-seller "Feeling Good" too -- about handling depression. It helped me cope as I dealt with being an LBS this year and became depressed myself.
Ah, bibliotherapy -- one good reason to read!
I'm thinking of you and will check in again. Keep in mind the days are lengthening already -- more sunshine is in store.
