JOURNAL

Well, my WAW is being very nice too me - which is strange. She even had a coffee with me yesterday. I have greatly detached so either she now thinks I've moved on so it's safe to be friends or the dynamics of DB are really working; as I pull away she inches closer... We'll see...

Onto me, have a counselling session today regarding my temper and short fuse as this is something I'm desperate to fix for myself. I'm never physically violent but I do lose my temper by shouting etc. I don't like it, it achieves nothing and needs to be changed.

My S has been off school ill the last 2 days - I've really enjoyed having him at home. Quality time although obviously not in the best circumstances.

Tonight I'm going to get my new tattoo finished and then go to the cinema with a couple of friends which I'm looking forward too.

Professionally, my business is doing really well - better than it has years and I can safely say that I am not financially responsible (another 180).

I do find it hard to not internally celebrate baby steps without reading too much into things - this is something I have to work on.

Also, validation, I'm struggling to understand this and use it, if anyone would be kind enough to give me a few examples I'd very much appreciate it.
Thank you.
