My first tiny success - have to grab them to get things rolling! W texted me, and said, "I still don't know what to say (about divorce). As usual. You'll probably be mad."
I just didn't respond; probably room for validation or exploring feelings, but I honestly don't trust myself to get dragged into something.
Baby steps! I already feel better this morning just knowing I'm stepping back - how odd that is the reverse from the beginning when stepping back was horrible. I have been doing a lot of reading on behaviors, how to change habits, etc, really working on me and my issues. I see where I have picked up a lot of relational behaviors from my parents; I refuse to be the type that blames their past to excuse their present, but I want to learn what I can to improve going forward.
Also, am going to a movie Friday night, football for S11 then taking kids to a pumpkin farm and a huge Harvest party on Saturday, church and dinner on Sunday. Bring on the weekend!
