I'm pretty proud of me today. (A little self-gloss never hurt anyone right?). Over the weekend, I feel I was able to correct the post-conversation with W slump quicker than I had previously... But it didn't look like I would be able to at first!
Saturday morning, I woke up and decided that it was time to get the puppy back to the vet for his vaccines and to check on a couple issues he's having. Well a couple hundred dollars later, I walked out with a soon-to-be healthy puppy but any plans for the weekend dashed... These unexpected expenses crush my budget.
So I was worried that with my new plans to just hang out at the house that I'd be in for some introspection and a bit of sadness... And while there was SOME of that, for the most part, I was able to keep my PMA... Watched a ton of movies, hung around on this board, did some fantasy football research, caught up with friends on the phone and got some writing done...
Sunday I hung out with my brother and niece at a local park with the puppy, grabbed some lunch and spent the rest of the day getting the house into tip-top shape. The W texted early Sunday morning asking what was wrong with "our baby" (puppy), as she'd seen my update on Twitter, and I filled her in. She responded, asking me to keep her updated, that she knows he's "in good hands" and wishing me a happy Sunday.
I SOMEHOW was able to NOT respond to that part of the text... Normally I would have thanked her for her words, wished her a happy Sunday as well, and might have snuck something in about how the "kids" miss her too... But I said nothing!
So I feel pretty good about being able to pull back after our talk on Friday, not responding to EVERY text she sends, and trying to continue detaching as best as I can...
