Walking the path to my own happiness

[mamabird]

Thanks for the support guys! I do feel better being in a room that's less chaotic, though it's a far way from done at the moment. Part of the problem for me was (and will always be in this M) that if I want something done, I have to do it myself. It was not that hard to go out and get the bookshelves, but it did cost $ which was a very limited resource until just recently (H got some nice commission). There comes a point where sanity takes priority, though, and I was getting to the point of insane!

I didn't give him a chance to say anything about the ring because I waved my hand in his face during our last dust up. But I'm sure he's noticed my change in attitude, and seems to be reacting to it somewhat... he's been more open with me, though still being a complete turd on the whole. And you know what? I'm really caring less and less about that.

Here's a nice thought for everyone's Sunday:

How do you know when you don't need people? When they're not in your life. How do you know when you do need them? When they are in your life. You can't control the comings and goings of the people you care for. What you can do is have a good life whether they come or go. You can invite them, and they come or not, and whatever the result is, that's what you need. Reality is the proof of it. - Byron Katie
