You did awesome! Blimey that was great! You stated your case in a straight yet non-threatening way. And you placed your concern with S and avoided any real R talk. Hurray for you! As Anna said, you are in KMA mode!

God grant me the serenity,
to accept the things I cannot change,
To change the things I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference.

I am noticing a wonderful effect from being on these boards and wondered, considering the amount of posting you are doing recently - whether you were feeling this too.
1. Reading and Posting on the boards makes you stronger. 2. Getting great advice on the boards makes you feel just about invincible. 3. Applying the advice and noticing results helps you further. 4. Because you feel strong, you wander over to other threads and start posting advice - And guess what? You feel even more in control of your life.
So you go from strength to strength.... Only side effect is getting hopelessly addicted to the boards...
.....makes you stronger. ....just about invincible. Anyone heard of the song with the lyrics "I am STRONG. I am Invincible. I am WOOOOMAN..." I am sorry...but I don't know why that I am in such jovial mood..... (Hopefully my PMS will not set in soon and spoil everything!)

Yes, Helen Reddy another strong Aussie sheila. I was brought up listening to that song!
Kim, great relationship talk, and you handled it with such style! Cool, calm and kicking butt! Loved your response to having a drink. You are so focused. Keep it up
Apologies...haven't really had much time to read or post lately. But I have now caught up on your thread. WTG!!! I love the strength you are showing in your interactions.
I have had much the same types of H in the past 3 days. Doesn't it feel great when you have control of your words and your emotions?
This is for BB.... Detaching has made it easier for me so I guess I cope with everything better at the moment so yes that would be with the kids too i think. To be honest I need to stop and think about that.... Yep I would definately say I cope better with the kids. B4 I was not coping very well with most things as H was in my head 24/7 and I wasn't getting the reactions or results I was striving so hard to get now that I have detached I am not after results anymore so this makes me a better person to be around and therefore that's gotta be better for my kids.
Honestly I feel a fair bit guilty for being so self absorbed over the last few months that I feel I have neglected the kids a little...not their day to day care or being there for them but by not being truly switched on to them but no more....they are good kids and have taken it all in their stride and yes they are enjoying their holidays thankyou for asking but now their rooms become alot more messy so I nag them more...hehehehe....KDU

Yep, I can truly relate. Sometimes I can really focus on them and sometimes my mind is elsewhere and I can't hardly hear them. But they've been great to me and have really saved me from myself sometimes. So I gotta keep my appreciation for that in mind and focus on them when they want that focus.
And bust on 'em a bit when their rooms need attention. Which is always.
