Minnie -- Thanks so much for the visits! I AM feeling better...yesterday I was just in high anxiety mode ALL DAY! But I had a good meeting at school, came home and relaxed with h, etc. Today I'm not feeling so physically "off"

i do sort of feel like I'm in "bottomless pit" mode...I know I've been here before but I'm just feeling kind of wavery and needy...

****************
Positives from yesterday:

1. Had a good class meeting -- I'm using work, school and home as a way to practice the listening skills I've recently been focused on...so far it's going pretty well...one thing that's REALLY helping me is to try to think "what story is this person trying to tell me" when someone else is talking...trying to really absorb what they are trying to get across....

2. spoke with h about school and he told me that he was not going to participate in a particular competition...I think it's great that he's managing his time so well and I told him that...I like how he asked for my thoughts

3. I asked h to read a paper I was turning in yesterday and he was positive and very specific about what he enjoyed about it!

4. got up and exercised this AM!

5. going out to dinner with a friend tonight
