For those following my "signs," I forgot to add that the breakfast check with Betsey came to $ 26.66! I think the Lord was telling me not to allow the lovely lady across from me to lead the Devil into my thoughts!! I don't think that was ever a problem, but a friendly reminder from above never hurts!

I decided to try a new appraoch yesterday and talked to W about setting a schedule to share our bedroom--she has slept on a sofa bed for a few months and is moaning heavily about it. I think this is one of those areas where I can compromise--and while I think she is using her usual martyr tactics to get what she wants, I also think it had a positive impact in that her ongoing nasty edge for the past eight weeks noticeably disspated last night. We'll see how long it takes to return .


Keep on fighting the good fight.
