Good morning Ab Landers!
Deter you should watch funny movies instead of the news. That's my script for your blood pressure!
Greenie is this your last year for taxes at the hole?? I'm ready for 2009 as soon as all the various forms come in the mail. :yougo: I have much to do however, to set up the Mary Kay stuff for 2010. I need to get after that before it becomes a pile of mess!
Hello to all from yesterday!
A topic that I think is good came up in another thread yesterday. What do I say to my family about my drinking / not drinking / bad things I've done? AAthlete provided a response which I thought was good (as usual for AAthlete!!) and that was true in my case.
My actions spoke louder than any words I could have said. Stopping drinking was way more effective than promising I would stop drinking. Behaving in a calm an rational manner instead of a raging drunk was more effective than saying I would change.
I think the challenge is that we really WANT to make things right immediately. In many cases, we can't. We have to be willing to wait it out and just demonstrate our changes day after day until we are "believable" and trustworthy in someone else's point of view. We can't control what others think - only our own behavior.
And with that, I'm zooming off and will do my best to do the right thing along the path of today.
