She's ready to move on

[Michael Mc C]

Thanks H!

You know I had a boss a few years ago that found it amazing how quickly I was responding to client questions during a conference call. He told me that I needed to slow down, think about what I was saying and then respond. He told me that there is absolutely nothing wrong with a 'contemplative pause'.

I need to work this into my dealings with my wife and go back to the "is what I'm about to say going to make things better or make things worse."

Also detaching will keep me from saying a lot of the things I say anyway. If I was detached well enough, the question about the couch probably never would have come up.

Thanks once again!
