Trusting - Thanks for stopping by! It's not always a party in here, and can be frustrating for some, but "we're dealin'!" ST had some amazing thoughts. I did some really good listening this am. I'll post the links to you in the alt. Really good.
Jeff - Gosh, you make it sounds so easy!!! Being able to rise above myself, here, will be the challenge. Living w/a shaky tummy isn't working, ya know? I need to re-read what you wrote... And, do some thinking. I think I just need to do one thing when H's back in town each time, that's stepping out of the box for me. I'm hoping that will build some courage. Gulp
ST - Just sent that passage to my phone! You always know the right things to say and when... I have these little snippets in my notes section of my phone, so when I'm sitting and waiting on boys I can read them, and digest. S10 continues to coughcoughcough. It's hard to listen to. I feel so bad for him.
This is weird. I've been almost paralyzed in speech to work like I normally do, too. It's easy to hide from it at home, too... I've been resorting to email, instead of actual conversations. Today, I've forced myself to do a lot follow-ups to these leads from the trade show I missed. I have to say... it felt kind of good! I'm good at my job. I need to remember that when I go to email vs. pick up the phone. I can't paralyze my craft, too!!!

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
We have hardly anything to eat in the house. And, I always keep the house stocked. The last three times I've gone to the grocery store, I've spent less than $50 (over two weeks). I can't make any decisions on what to get.
Wow.
Time to get my sh*t together.

and yes, phone calls are always better. I know that too, but I would so much rather send an email than speak on the phone. Good for you to step out of your box!! you ARE good! so believe it!
I'm so glad you appreciated the verse. My bible has tons of markings in it, so I just flip through the pages and find the ones that I highlight. I did a lot of that during my sitch. And there are many that we can really relate to.

"It is far better 2 choose humility & change oneself, than 2 wait in vain trying 2 chang someone else."
You both will be comforted by the fact that I took both boys into the kitchen and had them make a list of nutritious and not so nutritious items they want. If I can't make decisions right now, they can, within reason!
ST - H actually likes to grocery shop! Weird!
OP - LoL Seriously, what's wrong w/it and a few Omega 3's and Chloroxygen pills? Who needs food?

Mind - So been there with the grocery thing! Boys that age, if you don't feed them they might start chewing off an arm or something. Or even resort to the witch's brew .. .
So how is the fear thing today? I would love those links on the alt!
