Been quiet for a few days because I really have been thinking hard about the advice I've been given. Working on detaching and GAL. And now I can say I'm feeling pretty good about that. Some of my 180s that I've accomplished:
-- leaving work thinking about the good things of the day, not the failures. -- living in the moment with my daughter-- trying to not be so controlling, enjoying our time instead of just getting through it. -- not feeling so wistful or worrying/wondering what H is doing. We have very little contact--pretty much just about our D3.
I've had a couple of moments of sadness-- felt like I was tearing up, like "I can't believe this is my life".. but I took a breath and moved on by thinking about something good in my life. I'm just not consumed with feelings of sadness and loss anymore.
