Hi DB'ers, H came home grumpy last night and I got a little testy too. Then I started to cry a little b/c my rolls were burning and my quiche crust were burning. ummmpf! I was taking his mood somewhat personally even though I knew I shouldn't be. We sat on the couch & I told him he seemed grumpy. He said he was sorry, he was tired.
***WHAT??? OMG!!! It's been a loooong time since he said he was sorry for being in a bad mood! I just realized what a plus this is!! +++!!
I said that I was edgy too and that I got into a fight with my doggies too b/c they were getting their chains tangled up with each other and kept jumping on me when I was trying to untangle them and then my food was burning...and the grocery store was out of a product that I wanted AGAIN...OK, so I'm tired too...(too many jell-o shots...) so i said, "come-here," and we hugged, then ate. and gosh, he loves crust even if it is dark **sniff sniff**. I said, "i cried for nothin?" he said, "yeah." *hugs* whattaguy.
My goal for the day? I need to work on having gratitude. When Sage sent me that website for belief.net, I took the gratitude test and failed miserably. I'm too young to be a grumpy ole lady!! I feel like I walk around with so much resentment! (for co-workers, my boss, fam. members, friends, h, strangers, *myself*, etc...) I feel so angry and irritable much of the time. I know I should be more appreciative. So, any suggestions on how to be more thankful? I can list things to be thankful for:
H said he was sorry for his bad mood. H was snuggly last night in bed. H complimented my quiche. I love my doggies My head has been sooo much better! i have a secure job i have plenty of food i have a lovely, warm home i have plenty of clothes to wear i have a nice family i have lots of friends & virtual and in person I AM LOVED by many people & God. thanks for being here! karen
