Can I ever get over this? I really don’t know right now. I was just driving around the corner, literally, to move the car for a painting project. And some dance song came on and I love to dance (well I did prekids, really haven’t had a chance in the last 5 years 🙃) and …

Day 18
I need to regroup. Focus on healthy eating, sleep, water, and being as not up tight as possible. My intentions for the week. So on Saturday we took a drive. It started to rain as soon as we left the house for a walk, so we went about a block and turned around. Drive instead. …

Day 15
I feel like I am failing at breast feeding. Why is it so hard? I feel like I am trying really hard with this, but maybe not hard enough. The baby took a long time to go to sleep last night. He just wasn’t getting what he needed. Hubs was feeding him a bottle, first …
Day 14

I feel like hubs has a hard time planning (or just over thinks and takes too long on this phase), initiating, working through abs completing …
Day 12
Yesterday was pretty good. My emotional outbursts / deregulation were limited. Overall, I think I handled things pretty well. I got to give some feedback to the hubs CSAT which I was happy about. I don’t know what they really discuss, but I am sometimes concerned about his perspective of things, so it felt good …
Day 11
Yesterday was even better than the day before. Only I blow up (at least only one I remember) by me toward the hubs. His time management and awareness sucks. I don’t want to be relied on as the project manager for all things. I want him to be able to set time parameters and to …
Day 10
Yesterday was better. I stayed busy with some self care, nursing and fall decorating. It helped me to reduce intrusive thoughts about my husbands acting act behaviors and his recovery. I want him to be in recovery and to work his program, but it is his job to prove it to me, it is not …
