New attitude, new thread

[ClingingToHope]

Good visit with counselor today. She had me go through the vacation and the times the anger spilled out. She thinks I'm doing fine. I think I'm a mess.

But perhaps I'm an improving mess. I was thinking over the weekend how anger basically affected my mom and dad their whole lives. My sister struggles with it and I'm seeing it in both my daughters.

What if my one goal and just one goal was to conquer anger and fear. Let everything else go. Just beat that. I think perhaps that's the greatest gift I could give my daughters.

My counselor suggested a book "Taming the Beast" and I'll pick it up tonight from the library.

Some texts from XW today. Who is going to buy what for D9's 10th birthday? D13 had orthodontist appointment. She needs a full set and it'll cost more than $5,000. She can't get them until February or March.

That's fine. I'd budgeted for that. That won't knock me off my plan at all, really.

Contacts from OKCupid and Match have died off. Sigh. Did get an email from someone on Plentyoffish.

Tomorrow I go and enroll for fall classes for the MBA. Also, last night I learned I'll get a few more umpiring games in the fall. Every little bit helps.

Lots to do. Wish it were less.
