Hey all, c’mon in ... fix yourself a drink (the last bartender I had drank too much and passed the f@ck out in the corner ) ...
Gotta love the power of anger ... the energy that comes with it to focus and push forward ...
> Can’t do anything about work FOR NOW. Gotta pay the bills so have to refocus and make sure I keep the job until I’m ready to move on. Also need to remember to be grateful for the job I have, in PEI it’s a damn good one and a decent salary.
> Money is what it is ... I can afford groceries, my mortgage, my car payment ... I keep a roof over my kids heads and food in the fridge. Time to get a little more thrifty and use the financial knowledge I have to better our sitch. Baby steps.
> Business ... nothing to do here except get to gettin’ (nickle B-lady). No more excuses, just do it. Time management, discipline ... I know the drill ... time to stop TALKING about it and start DOING it.
> AntoniaB ... I know you’re right. Baby steps here too. I can only do what I can do, and that’ll have to do! I’m going to make a list of projects and start scheduling them in as well ... there’s that time management piece again.
> Love. Time ... space ... no crystal ball. Stop forward thinking and be grateful what I DO have in my life right now. Keep diggin and strengthing my core.
> PLC ... I am going to do everything in my power to make sure that my kids develop the skills they need to work through all of the emotional trauma they will see as they live their lives. In my daughter’s 7 years on this planet she has dealt with the sudden death of her cousin and now the separation of her parents. She’s talking ... open ... emotional and dealing ... I will never take for granted that my kids are coping. I will always be watching ... if there is anything I can do to help prepare them for life, give them coping skills and teach them emotional intelligence then I will do what I can.
> Can’t change or control his actions and choices. Unfortunately, the law only cares about actual physical danger to my kids not their emotional well being ... well, whatever. I need to focus on what I have any control or input into ... namely, the MC appt we have to talk about this very issue and the way I support my kids when they have questions/concerns etc about the ever evolving situation.
> Maybe it’s time to redefine my “white picket fence dream”. I have a good life. Period. If I want more ... well, I need to get off my ass and work for it. Is it what I had planned? Nope. Does that mean it’s bad? Also nope. Doesn’t matter what someone else has or doesn’t have (even H) ... I, and I alone, am responsible for my life, my happiness, my choices. I am where I am because this is where I need to be right now. If I want to attract positivity, happiness, abundance and gratitude into my life then I need to live it.
> This one is tough. Have to remember to try to pay it forward. Be as real as I possibly can be and hope that someday someone takes something away from my thread that helps them take steps forward ... the way I have taken so much from all of you. Pay it forward. Keep it real. Words to live by
It’s funny .... feels good to get it out ...
Just gotta keep dustin’ off ... keep on steppin’ ... get to gettin’ .... (you again B-lady) ...
Now where did I put my beer? Hey Bear ... may as well hand me another ...
Holding onto anger to punish someone else, is like lighting yourself on fire to get smoke in their eyes ~ 25yearsmlc
