Treat ourselves with love absolutely. I am learning that what others think or feel about me or asume what i do or am doesnt matter.<BR/>I am learning to know me. I know that i am a beautiful person Yes i have my shortcomings but the criticism of others and there comments i realize sometimes is a direct refletion of how they feel about themselves. When i am wrong or hurt someone i feel i do my best to promptly admitt it.<BR/>I know the hardes job is to love me and give myself some credit.<BR/>I am teaching my ten year old daughter about loving herself. I dont want my child to ever not feel she is important. So it is hard Sometimes the qualifier has a bad day so attempts to hurt others I had that happened tonight and i was at school Wasnt very bad but he is asleep now and i will address it calmly. I will not allow someone or anyone to treat me with disrespect Tire of it. I am learning to love myself.

Fortunately my husband was sober and able to help me...but I had the hardest time accepting his help. I kept apologizing, I guess because I wasn't able to do all the things I normally do. I must have thought he'd think less of me...but then he pointed out all the times I took care of him and this was the least he could do.

Why am I not planning the holiday I want? Why am I constantly asking where he'd like to go? Why did I get the whole thing set up, then discover the hotels are non-smoking and cancel them all again and look for places where he can smoke? Why did I spend the whole of a public holiday doing this? Because my beloved is well on the way to not drinking...... how naive can I get? VERY! Apparently cutting down is now the object of the exercise, not stopping if possible. <BR/><BR/>I know that it's one day at a time, but if he's already saying, "he's got it under control" ha, ha, ha ... <BR/><BR/>I was SO happy and now I'm not again.<BR/><BR/>Okay, Joe, my project has bombed but I haven't - big sigh - thank you, as always, for your inspiration.<BR/><BR/>SueAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-451509587037762640.post-39137536970431172822008-04-01T13:58:00.000-04:002008-04-01T13:58:00.000-04:00Thanks for the kind words!
