But this time, I’m not doing so bad. Not freaking out, just feeling a little down. No biggy.
Laura Corn wrote several books. Don’t remember the titles, but they’re all the “rip the envelope open and do what’s inside” type. We actually bought one a few years ago. The “tasks” seemed to fall between “ho-hum been there” and “whoa. don’t wanna go there.”
Since that time, everything seems to fall into the latter category for W, so I definitely can’t go there. It wouldn’t scare her, it would only pressure her and cause her to shut down even more.
I took a brief scan of [I]Love Languages[/b] at the bookstore once. Seems pretty good. I may get it some day, but to be honest, I think I’ve been doing a pretty good job of speaking her language, and if she ever saw the book, it would definitely speak the wrong language!
So. For now… Just doin’ what works. And for now, the best I can do is to go with the flow.
