Rollercoaster ride today that ended okay, I think?? My Mom is in town to help out and take care of the kids, so I took advantage and went out to the Mall to do some Christmas shopping. My W works in a big dept. store as her pt job. I was in the same store tonight looking at new suits (nothing fits after you lose 70 lbs.) I texted her to get her 20% discount on purchases. After I let her know I was in the store and asked if it was okay to come up to get a list of gifts the kids could get her for Christmas. She agreed if that was the only thing we talked about. We ended up talking for 15-20 minutes, but I did most of the talking. My mistake, I realized this about ten minutes in and asked her about work and she opened up like a flower!! All she has ever wanted is someone to listen to her and it is so easy to do. We ended on a positive note and I look forward to seeing her again on Saturday for exchange of S9. Got to remember to talk less and ask about her. Could this be another glimmer of hope. I am not getting my hopes up, I am going to saty the course.

Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.
