Damn, Mer, here I was--hoping to sit an easy week out and you've already assigned homework? I barely finished my second cup of coffee and I'm back in the fight... I don't know whether to hit you or hug you!
I read ACA book a really long time ago, and think maybe it's time to re-read it. I also benefited greatly from Codependent No More... sadly, I gave the books away years ago.
Part of what I think I'm dealing with right now, especially in regards to boundary setting, is tied to this issue. UGH!
I received a very thought-provoking e-mail message from Love2Win over the weekend (thanks, Karen) and she gave me a few bones to chew on as well. They mostly addressed the absence of boundaries with Mr. Wonderful and I've been contemplating them all night.
So while I won't be able to match the length of your list, I will add my own--after all, you did a dynamite job. I think I need you to come over and give me that Monday morning energy! BTW, Pam said she'll be back on tomorrow.
I'll add mine to your list in a sec.
