S4 has a runny nose and cough. I called his drs office and they said they will most likely have to reschedule since it is probable that his cold won't go away before Wed. I'm leaving it up to God. I can only keep him home so much before we both get cabin fever.
But I do feel more relaxed today about the entire thing.
And yes Stubborndyke, I think the Al Anon mtgs did help. It coulda gone a lot worse! I could've acted a lot like the old me and manipulated it so I looked like the victim with a dose of guilt.
And LaBug, you just made me really think about something. I never realized I could be the person that people have to walk on eggshells with. That's crazy but true. His response to me was quickly to appease me and read into it. I more than likely reacted this way to get that exact response from him because I know he's a people pleaser/caretaker.
And about not listening to him, you're right I didn't get what I was expecting from my talk with him so I tuned him out. Wow! I have learned that I'm not a very good listener. I catch words or phrases I expect to hear. Very interesting.
********************* Journaling
I've been working on my "inventory" with my sponsor and have learned so much about myself. It's amazing! It can be so emotionally draining since it brings up old wounds that I had hoped to forget.
Other than that things are going well in my life. More to come later. I'm exhausted :-O
