Just a little journaling. Fathers day weekend.

First of all I tried to lower my expectations around this day in general. Although tough mentally I did it. Sometimes I get a script of the day in my head prior and it hurts me.

My S was sick all weekend which stunk. Sort of monkied my GAL plans with the both kids. I ended up rotating with W for family events etc..

Actual day went ok. I didn't receive a card directly from W or the words Happy fathers day. She did make me breakfast and actually asked me what I wanted with my breakfast. Her LL is acts of service so I totally could see this. She also made me some amazing things from the kids for fathers day. I didn't pursuit her. Didn't go for a hug or anything. I just thanked her and later in the night made some comments to the kids how much I loved the gifts in front of her. So there was some effort by W. More then I expected so a win.

Saturday night it appeared she was looking for anything to nit pick at me but I just ignored and read my growth books..

Alanon this week and hopefully working with sponsor on the steps. I'm excited. I see some growth in me. I see me recognizing when I say things that maybe could have been said better or not said at all. Learning to start to mind my own business in all aspects of life. Learning to try to do things for all people in my life with out expectations.

That is all for now. I'm excited to grow and become a better man.
