Starting again...with a Beginner's Mind

[sage]

Wow...I haven't posted on my own thread for 3 days...what's up with that?

Still have some "homework" to do -- been spending a lot of my BB time over in Newcomers tossing out my 2 cents.

Things at home are great. We had a really nice weekend together (H was gone during the days but we had dates each night!). I went into work late yesterday morning so we could go for an EARLY morning hike (can you say "we left the house at 5:20 am"??? ). He just called to let me know that he's off to the market to get stuff for the grill...gonna be watching the ALL STAR game!

Positives abound....
1. H called a bunch of times today -- to read me stuff from a book, to check in, to tell me about dinner

2. we've both been sharing the load of cleaning up at home (that decluttering thing!) and thanking each other

3. h has been making a super conscious effort to be frugal and sensitive to my money worries -- this is a big deal to me as it was something that I'd always felt I cared about much more than he did!

4. I'll admit to some moments of panic yesterday (just "things feel so good" stuff gone awry) but I got through them myself with some self-talk, activity, etc.

Will be back with more "homework" when I get my work done (tomorrow? day after?).
