I don't have much to report today. H emailed me a joke today. I responded with "haha!". It was sweet.
I do have a personal coach helping me on a personal level. We talked today about the importance of 'reframing' my position, and also about how to deal with oppositional behavior - and what not to do. He brought in a sales analogy, which helps people bring their defenses down. I feel a bit overloaded with people management skills, so I'm taking a break from it all for a little while. I do find it absolutely fascinating and I am putting many of the skills to practice in my daily life. My relationships are improving as a result. I still slip, but overall, I see positive changes. It's good practice but the real test will come when (if) my H ever decides to reconcile.
