Do you think you will ever be able to CONTROL what she does? Psst…answer is NO.

Do you think you CAN CONTROL what you do? Psst…answer is YES.

I modified your last post a bit…see below…

A - Setting boundaries= Are GOOD FOR ME. I will enforce the boundaries – even if that means I kick her as* out.

b - Going dim in my own house=Going DIM is FOR me. It is to protect me emotionally. If she continues to emotionally abuse me – I will refer to “setting boundaries”

c - GAL activities=GAL is GOOD for ME and the Kids. Since I am dealing with someone who is insane right now. I will ignore her and continue to GAL. If she emotionally abuses me I will refer to “setting boundaries”

D - Working on myself= whatever happens in my life – I will be okay. Since I can only control myself then I can only work on myself. If people (especially W) do not understand that. There is nothing I can do. If they attack me for it…I will FACE MY FEARS and refer to “setting boundaries”.

E - Working on my relationship with my kids= I love my kids and right now they need a sane parent. As part of working on my R with my kids, I will begin to journal the activities that I do with them and also document the craziness of my W. I will also do what it best for the kids (not what is best for me). If my W attempts to impact my R with my kids I will refer to “setting boundaries”.

F - Being the best me= I will wake up every day, look in the mirror and say…1) I am a sexy b*tch 2) I love myself 3) I cannot change others 4) I am no longer afraid 5) I like the new me and 6) I will do my best today, that is all I can ask of myself. Do the best with the tools that I have.
