I wholeheartedly agree with everything RedHeadWife said!! Well said!!! Some days you feel great, others you don't, sometimes it's an hour by hour deal. But the more time and patience you give it, the better it gets, the better you feel. It's always good to sleep on things before reacting or responding. I like the 48 hr rule idea.
I really think having patience and fortitude is what makes women so good at DBing and R.
