givingitmyall~ THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking the time to spell all this out for me. I have been doing my best to surmise what all the acronyms really meant in terms of action and I will print out your post and read it over and over until the book gets here.
Today, for the first time in a long time, I actually admitted to myself and others that I have been very unkind to myself, trying to take too much of the guilt on myself and putting on a happy face over and over until I would just finally burst with anger and resentment. I have not been kind to myself, not taking enough time for myself. Not filling my tank so I can be my best for quality time with any of my family.
Baby steps begin today...
Working on homework with both S right now. Going for a walk with them after dinner. Quality time before their bedtime. Just enjoying the moments.
