I saw Skynyrd and Hank Williams Jr. this Spring. First concert I ever attended with my 25S. We had a blast. It was at the beginning of my sitch and my first born was very intent on making sure his mom had a good time and forgot about the pressures at home. Detroit is a great place to see a concert. Kid Rock is Detroit. I'm jealous. Have fun!

Kid Rock has a song/video out now that I love, All Summer Long. It's about summer time in Northern Michigan.

I'm in a much smaller house now. I like the less pressure. I hate cleaning bathrooms. I got a cleaning lady when I got sick. Kept her after I got well. One of the best things I ever did.

Have a great weekend. Talk to you Monday.

No golf together, but he invited me to stop by his "guys night" on Friday evening after I helped my oldest son write an offer on a house. I was nervouse about going, but it was fun and we had a good time together.

Then he took me shopping and out for dinner on Saturday. We had a very nice time, and he bought me new golf shoes as a birthday gift.

We kind of talked about going on Sunday, but we had some unexpected company and then the weather turned bad and we had rain. The day went well though, we had some alone and some together time and bbq'd some chicken for dinner.

I think it was the best weekend we have had together in monts, however a kind of strange comment from him this morning as he left for work. I mentioned that I wanted to go after work and hit a bucket of balls since I haden't played this weekend. He made a comment about who was I trying to get better for anyway?, and then mentioned a guy that I work with! WTF?

He caught me totally unaware and it made me angry. I gave him an un DB comment, that maybe his own quilty conscious was making him suspicious of me. He stormed off for work and did not give me a hug or say goodbye.

I did call him after I had been to work for a few hours. I am running an errand for him later today and I needed to ask a question. He was fine on the phone, and I asked him what had happened this morning? He said oh, he was just busy and had to get the trash out. I said, no, about my coworker, and he said oh I don't care if you golf with him or not. I'm just worried about you becoming controlling again.

So I got out the DB skills and validated and the call ended well. What the heck?

At least it wasn't the Alien, but I sure was not expecting to be accused of doing something that would be hurtful to him...

I suppose he is noticing the changes in me and perhaps it is worring him a little. I had a little slip, but it won't happen next time. It seems that each time I learn a little more and am better prepared to handle what he throws me.

Hope,

What a fantastic "normal" weekend......they sure do feel good. You must have felt like a priority....a very good feeling. Good ecovery on this morning as well. Those type of comments just laugh off and you are right it probably is his guilty conscience....our minds can play some pretty bad tricks on us.

Probably a little worry, a little confusion. You are right about him noticing the changes his own words say that....he is worried about you becoming controlling AGAIN....in other words he has noticed that you haven't been. This probably has a good bit to do with his changes lately. He is responindg to your changes.....keep up the good work. He is also watching to see if the changes are going to stick. In some respects he is trying to figure out who you are.

A better response would be "I was hoping to improve my game for our golf outing next weekend"

The concert was great. The tickets were the 9th row in the center, but the way the stage curved in the center it actually made us front row...center stage!!! Kid puts on a very energetic performance. My W thinks he is very hot in a "primal" sort of way. Skynyrd did a very good job as well althoug not nearly as energetic except for a couple of the guitarists.....I though they were going to need a crash cart for one of the guys....lol

When he said, "Who are you trying to get better for... Coworker?" I said, "no, you". "I want you to be proud of me."

I did manage to get that in before my hurt got the better of me.

We had such a good weekend, why start the week off like this?

I believe that your comments are accurate. It's just that fidelity has always been very important to me and an old counselor once told me that the S will accuse you of what they are themselves guilty of.

After the good weekend it totally took me by surprise.

Hmmm, "primal" I think that is the southern gentleman's way of saying "ghetto." He has several more tattoos than my tast allows for hot. I do love his music though.

Did he have the strippers in his show? I'd like to think there was something for you as well.

No, none of the sorts.....oh well....you woul dthink with being just a short distance from Buorbon street that would have been no problem to arrange.....lol

Actually, I got a kick out of it...he took off his shirt and my W was saying "wow look at those abs".....if you have ever seen him up close...he is really pretty scrawning with virtually no muscle tone. I had to correct her and said...."sweetie, he doesn't have a 6-pack, he is just very skinny".....lol. I think she really just likes how much energy he has


Your old C was very wise

I agree with you, he has his shirt off in his video "All Summer Long." I LOVE the video and the song... but abs? I'll take Kenny Chesney any day....those are abs!

My old C was wise...I don't want to think about that. I'm working on the forgiveness, but it still hurts.

I know it is hard, it took me quite a while myself. Just remember forgiving someone is a gift you give yourself. Chances are they are way past the guilt before you forgive them. Thus it is only hurting you....once you find the courage to do it and believe it you feel 100x better!
