No problem, Being Me! We all have to let loose once in a while...I'll mop up later Well, STBX seems to be back to her normal self now, last night she laid into D11 because D started badgering her for a new pair of winter boots. D had asked me previously and I had said I'd talk to her mom but forgot to. So, D took it into her own hands...bad move! STBX responded with "I've had a hard day, why do I always have to make all the decisions, I'm always the bad guy around here..." then marched off. Ahh,so good to have the world back to the way it should be! Does any of this sound familiar FLTC? Anyway, when she calmed down we discussed the issue with D11 and came up with a decision. I apologized to D for forgetting to ask but asked her in future to remind me if I have not gotten back to her about something I said I'd do. I've also made a decision to return to the church I left three months ago. I always seem to end up back there for events anyway, I miss the people and I have a good relationship with all the Pastors. I left due to feeling a bit uncomfortable about the worship style as I wasn't raised in a church where, let us say, emotional expression was OK. I've discussed this with one of the Pastor's and she helped me realize that I may not be a prayer warrior or a "Praise the Lord" kind of guy but I have things to contribute that are just as important to a congregation. I think I may have left because I was in the midst of dealing with one year anniversary of our separation and felt rather low, like a failure and when I'd go to church I'd feel I wasn't cutting it there either. But over the past few months I end up back there frequently and realized that this is where I feel my Christian home is and therefore have returned. I began attending the bible study again this week and it was so nice to see the joyful expressions on peoples faces when I arrived. Their greetings made me realize I was missed. Possibility Lady (remember her? a sweetheart but way to young for me!) came in greeted me happily and announced to everyone "I'm going to sit with Whatis tonight" Yup, nice to be back there! So that's the update from the world of Whatis, don't let all the excitement keep you up tonight folks! Hey, Being Me, I've started reading a book about an American MP company in Iraq, it's called "Patrolling Bagdad" Y'know, you may leave the army but the army never leaves you! I'm not sure whether that's a good or a bad thing Take care.
