This is what my therapist said as I was lamenting that I was getting tired of this yet I want to stand:
She said that I need to get out and make plans (GAL) otherwise, regardless of if I want to stand or not, I will get tired of standing because I will be bored if I am doing nothing that is stimulating for me. It makes so much sense as as I mentioned in my post that I have plans I want to make happen. By looking forward, it is helpful to have a focus on them other than what he is or is not doing.
Anyway, I thought it was interesting, AND I noticed when I went to go to work this morning, he washed my car last night when he got gas. A nice gesture, but the car was covered in ash already.
