Ups and Downs

[Energizer Bunny]

Well, I got a lot done this weekend. I made sure the projects around the house were taken care of. I read, and even got out with a friend most of Saturday.

My son called each night they were gone and I talked to W two of the nights. Short and sweet (smile and wave as I read somewhere...I like that one). Just asked about their day. Wished them well for the next day.

I got the book "His Needs, Her Needs." It was good. I didn't agree with everything, but the overall concept was good. I think I let my Love Bank for me run dry.

Strange - when they came home, she continuted to "Smile & Wave" herself. She made chatty conversation and seemed excited to show me the pictures from their weekend. I'm kind of conflicted on this. I think it's a good thing, but it's kind of weird considering that it was pictures of the "Hubby isn't allowed weekend." Kind of hurtful considering that everyone else in her family was doing the stuff that I used to be included in. They she came home and talked all about it, kind of like the reason that I wasn't there is because I had to work or something and not because she didn't want me to go!

I'm sticking with the smiling and waving.

In the mean time, I started the book "The Dance of Anger," which may help to understand my W a a little better.
