I think it's time to pull DB out, brush off the dust and start reading again before we go on our trip to Colorado next week with our 2 boys. I'm real good at those ASSumptions too Sage. One thing that I have realized is that I PROJECT my feelings onto my H. I think what I'm THINKING is actually happening and that he feels the same way I do. (stinkin' thinkin') We have not discussed projection on here very much from what I can tell, and I think so many of us do it and don't even realize it. I hafta say this goal setting is very difficult for me. I'm afraid if I list things I will see happening and they DON'T happen, I will become disappointed and discouraged. It will be a real challenge for me if I attempt this, and another thing I think is it's difficult to do. I don't think I'll do it right, therefore I've avoided it. You've given excellent examples and food for thought concerning this-I think I may think on this and see what I can come up with as far as goals. Rachael
