Here is the thing. I am pretty sure I have Bobbi Jo all figured out except for how she handles her M and her H. I have been going to an IC for a few months to help me get Bobbi Jo back to being herself.
Goals included:
1)Moving forward professionally--I was just deciding to go back to teaching after being at home 18 months
2)Getting more of a social life w/friends
3)Getting into running again to run a 10K this summer
4)Getting more involved w/my spiritual/Christian development
Progress in the last 3 months
1)Got back into subbing, now I am in a long-term job to the end of the year with all the "real" teaching responsibilities. Also went on an interview last week for a full-time teaching job
2)Doing more socializing including going to CA w/my sister in Feb, lined up some outings with friends back in Iowa starting in April, doing things with a married couple we are friends with too.
3)Can't really run b/c of broken foot but that will happen again as soon as possible. Belong to the Y here and will join in Iowa when I move
4)Stopped listening to so much talk radio and started listening to Calvary Chapel radio again, they pretty much run messages from pastors from all over the country all day long. Also joined a small group message-based study group at church. We meet each Wed. to talk about the week's message (sermon). Also signed on to be an Usher 1 Saturday per month. This also helped meet my goal to socialize...
In addition I have bought some new clothes for teaching, got my hair highlighted, etc. so am happy w/how BJ looks on the outside. In terms of job satisfaction, social life, family life (kids anyway), I am pretty satisfied. The M/mess with H is the only real concern I have right now. Which is probably why I focus on it, it is the only real "project" I have left....
Anyway just trying to say that I have been doing work on Bobbi Jo. Our MC said when it comes to personal progress I had made major strides. She said that for example on a scale of 100 she felt I had moved from a 20 to an 80. My H said he started at a 10, she asked where he felt he was on personal development after 3 months, he said still at a 10 maybe 20 at best.....So part of the problem is that I HAVE made a lot of gains and he hasn't "caught up" to me....
