Pud-I hope she felt that I just supported her and wanted her to know it. No pressure or anything involved. She was curled up with her hands across her chest when I held her. Literally, cannot open up.
T2-I checked my ego a while back. I try not to allow myself to feel superior to anyone at any time. It was one of W's complaints and one of my weeds to dig. But thanks for the support.
AJ-I have found strength in a lot of places. I never knew how strong a man could feel by putting himself on his knees. I am working so hard to become a man I can be proud of. If I can be proud of me and love me, I know my sons will as well. And maybe, just maybe a woman will one day too.
Current update: I've been busying myself all afternoon putting away Christmas decorations and cleaning up the house in the aftermath. Played some video games with S12 and won. Cleaning up the kitchen at this point while steaks are marinating. I'll be going out to grill in a few.
