Jeez, Gardener, that's a lot of stuff. I'll look into it.
Yes, I need to learn more mind tricks. I've tried a few, closing my eyes to listen to the world around me. I actually did that walking in from the outfield today in softball.
Another one, taking three deep breaths then saying to myself, "For this life lord, I am grateful" and working on down to "For this moment lord I am grateful."
I've been saying the Serenity Prayer a lot lately as well. The first line does help me refocus.
All part of the process. After my second softball game I sent both D7 and D11 texts to STBXW's phone.
During the school year I see them so much that I don't really need to taxt them. But now I'm going to go big chunks of time without seeing them and I was thinking of how my dad drifted away over time. I'm not going to let that happen so I think a text every day or every other day until school fires back up will be fine.
I missed them terribly today. I was wondering though if that also isn't a bit of co-dependency?
D11 had a rough day. She got stung by a bee. D7 just responded "yes" to my question of whether she had fun at her daycare place.
