Attagirl, S. You showed him something different. How did that feel?
Show strength because you are strong. Show positivity because you know you are going to be ok no matter what happens.
Do not allow him and his nonsense to push you off your path.
I know you didnt ask for the wreath to be hung. I just kinda would have liked for you to have gotten the nail and the hammer and just do it without a word, ya know?
You are right where you need to be...but, yes, you do need to get out of your own head...and his, too.
I showed him something kind of different but he showed me something SUPER different by being aware of the mess left behind, offering to help AND doing it (he's here right now).
How does it feel? It feels like progress. Is progress a feeling?
His nonsense is always pushing me off my path. Even tonight.
I feel like he's a bull in a china shop and I'm running around trying to protect all the things he's breaking without noticing. I can't ask him not to come inside the china shop so I'm doing damage control while he's here. It's hard not to follow the bull around the china shop instead of minding my own business, you know? And then when he leaves, I sweep up pieces for days.
About the wreath, there's nothing I could have done about that. I can't control him having hung it from my whisper to myself. The man is half deaf from mixing and mastering his own music; he can't hear half of what I say but he heard that?
But I'll tell ya what I will be doing on my own... I have to buy two tires and get an alignment. Something I've never done before. I'm eager to learn and take care of my own car!
Stay out of heads. That's my goal for the rest of the week.
