Old dog seeks new trick 10

[Old Dog]

OK crisis over. I feel able to carry on standing.

You folks truly are amazing. It seems like half my posts start with thank you, but believe me it is heartfelt and very much appreciated.

Although it's 3.20am here in the old kennel, I have been asleep and that feels good.

i understand my wife has left me. I need to get to work on myself and I need to set boundaries. The thought of standing up for myself in such a manner feels scary - maybe I need to re-read No More Mr Nice Guy. Maybe that's putting it off further. [klaxon noises off] Procrastination alert!

I do have difficulty with that though. V, kicking her out of bed is a grand idea. Weve got a spare mattress. The only trouble is, there's nowhere to put it other than the living room and she goes to bed way too early and would make that room out of use in the evening. Something to ponder anyway.
