Z, hope you enjoyed the October fest, especially being September!!......aa man ahead of his times!!
Thanks Cadet. I had planned going back through those links so it is handy to have them in my thread.
Job, I do reread sandi's rules again from time to time. I bend one or two but otherwise stay fairly well within her guidelines.
ForeverY thank you for your quick reply and for taking the time to go back through my situation. You had to go back a good bit to find those quotes!! My initial reaction to them was a smile. So good choice. Now reading them I believe it is still true.
I won't give up on us or family BUT I won't live like this forever either. When I struggled I believed I hadto choose between those. Now I know I can improve my life within the constraints of my M. I believe I can live much better and it is on me to make that happen. One of the reasons I came here is to seek guidance/help to reach my potential.
I bought a CD book about being your potential. It was very good. In it the book you mentioned was mentioned. It is on my to read list.being still with my W, my private reading time is limited so I tend to listen to podcasts etc instead while I work. I will read it though.
