Hi Friends!
How are you? Go Betsey!!!

I didn't make any Crazy last night or this morn!! H and I went out to eat-he made me pick, so it was an "adventure." There's a saying-"it's always an adventure w/Karen." I have led some people on some wild rides. good tho...so, we went to a new rest. My food was absolutely gross! I mean, I've had bad meals before, but this was awful. So, we had to laff and I sent it back and got poppers (figure-they're frozen, they can't mess those up.) Went to winery, had a bottle and played buck euchre. Still struggling for some convo, but it seems that if I am patient and not **pressuring**, eventually, he talks more. Went to sleep, his back was hurting. Id'd looking at my c-making recipe, but decided to turn the oven off.

This morn. was patient, and well came from him! Ok, this works!!! I really tried to de-personalize and be compassionate about him being tired/sore. (His job wears him out).

Slowly, why the low self-esteem at home? You may have been over this before, so forgive me, but what can you do to make yourself feel better? Sometimes for me if something is bothering me about the house ie huge attacking dust bunnies on the wood floors, it helps just to tackle the job. Are things weighing on you? I'm glad you are doing better at your job!!

How do you corner your h?

Hope everyone has a great weekend! I already feel like I am more accountable to you as far as not c-making and biting my tongue. It was so hard not to ask the "are you ok?" questions, but I did it & it appeared that he felt more relaxed after a while.
