Thank you so much, Lim, for the awesome post. I love it. I will read and read it.
Today was better. I am faking it until I make it at work. No one knows. There would be no purpose in telling anyone there and I think it helps. It forces my mind off of my troubles for most of the day and makes me put a smile on.
Things I did for myself today:
1. Went to my support group. 2. Ate healthy. 3. Made a hair cut appt. Think I am going to get a new do. 4. Made a new friend maybe 5. Reconnected with an old friend and I was so glad to see him! 6. Went to a secondhand store and bought a lamp. WS never wanted me to have a lamp in the bedroom because he hated when I read.
I did not contact WS today. However, he did contact me and I wasn't really sure how to respond. He sent quite a few texts about our daughter(that were unnecessary) so I either didn't respond or said, "Okay, thank you" or "thank you. I appreciate that." Then he sent me a text asking if I was going to MC alone on Thursday. I responded that I could. He then messaged back that he thought it was better that we both go. I didn't respond because I wasn't sure what to say.
A couple of hours later, I got another series of random texts. Telling me something about the cat, that DD was watching tv, and that he was leaving. I just said okay. A few minutes later I got back, "Sorry to interrupt whatever you are doing." I didn't respond but when I got home, I noticed that he had taken my garbage bins out to the curb. He, in the past, has felt underappreciated so I opted to send a message that said, "Thanks for taking the bins out! It was great not to have to go back out and pull them to the curb. Much appreciated!!" He promptly sent back, "no problem". I didn't respond.
