Thanks again Sandi, it does help to calm my fears a little.
My goals are really from taking on board what W has complained about. Mostly it is around my social interaction. It would seem that I am anti-social, talk down to other people and ignore the opinions of others because I always know better.
I am trying to ressurect my business that died earlier this year.
So, I have been reading self help books, I have joined a dancing class which took some guts and I am practicing being nice with people I meet in the course of my business etc. I have also been training myself to bite my tongue when I see things that irritate me, like cyclists on the footpath etc. One of the things that always made her cringe was my pointing out the error of these cyclist's ways to them when passing. Fair point.
I have altered my dress code so that I change into something different when arriving home. That was one of the other points she made. I have done this consistently so every time she has been over, I have been in my glad rags.
I have booked music lessons too and have bought an electronic piano to practice with.
