Battlefield of the mind

[cat03]

hey guys, thanks again for your words :), every time I think I've learned enough I realize how much more room for improvement there is in me.
He called me today from his cell (I missed the call), I won't ask when he found it nor bring it up, the old controlling me would've asked for explanations, I won't do it.
I told him yesterday that if sometimes he wanted to be left alone & didn't want to me to talk/txt him that I wouldnt', but that in emergencies I'd need to contact him and apparently it almost created a manhunt yesterday from one of his coworkers for having an active phone #.

Just came from the memorial service of my sitter, not sure if I posted about her here but she died suddenly a week ago. I could only be so lucky as to live a life like hers-- we all knew that she had lived her life 100%, given and given to all to the best of her abilities & she was just so loved that the church was bursting. I only knew her for 7mths, but in those months you could sense energy coming out of her, she was a living testimony and I'm glad I met her, she taught my daughter so many good things. During the service one of the daughters spoke, told her father "thank you so much for making mom so happy, for being her best friend and for loving her so much, thank you". Ditto the bulletin, he was mentioned as "husband & best friend".
Gave me lots to think of, that kind of a R you dont' cajole/insist/control/talk into people, it is freely given. Had a good cry, we all celebrated her life and sang and prayed, I 'm so glad I was there.

Ahh, cat, sorry about your sitter/friend. I liked the part about the D telling her F what she did, it's wonderful to hear about a M like that.

My H went to a funeral today of a cop he knew, who had a heart attack the other day, so I guess he will be in a sad mood tonight. I always hope it will make him think of how short this life really is, and how we live it makes a difference.

I hope you have a good evening.

Something tells me we won't ever have it *all* figured out, but I believe the joy is in the journey anyway. You're doing a fantastic job!

Words to live by.

hey cat! Just swinging by to say hi.

You sound good. I'm glad you are beginning to let him go. Nice work. Not easy. He's got to find his way out of this. You can't drag him out.

this should be written everywhere you look! What a great concept to hang on to!!!
