My Glass is Almost Empty, BI_43 part 2

[believing_isaiah43]

Toughlover in Piecing posted last week about what he and his W are specifically doing to work on their R/M. and I printed it to use at MC today. Here's what I just wrote him:

TL, your list is printed, and I'm "fixin' to" highlight (as we say in the South) the parts I want to discuss today. Our MC appt is at 9:30 EST and today, 10/4, was already earmarked as our State of the Union day. So we'll be going over where we are and where we want to go. I told H last night we had a lot to discuss with MC today and he said, "are you leaving?" He is always expecting an ambush. That's a mutual problem in our M of late. I told him NO, that I wanted an action plan, with measurable goals, and a thorough discussion of what we both want (i.e. what would things look like specifically if we were each getting what we want in this R). Will paste this to my own thread, but wanted to thank you for your outline and I'll be adding on my own goals/actions to yours.

I'll keep you posted (pardon the pun. ha!)

Thanks also to Muddle, for driving home, in previous posts, the idea of MEASURABLE goals. You can't tell progress if you can't measure it somehow, he kept telling me. I get it, and I think H will too. Yeah, it's not romantic, but floating around in the cosmos hoping things will improve is also a cheeseless tunnel here at Chez Stepford.

I work tonight, with lots of busy-ness in between but will try to update you this evening if possible. Going to pray for the last little bit before we go. Would appreciate anyone shooting up a 'flare prayer' for us today as you see fit.

Thanx guys.
