I did not do well yesterday! My husband and I had a "tete-ta-tete" (less than an argument, but unpleasant interchange). His parents passed away and he inherited a lot of memorabilia. I told him he could bring home whatever he wanted as long as he would be willing to work with me to organize them. So, we have had boxes upon boxes here for weeks. Yestderay, when I showed him how I was going to convert a closet into a small office area where he could store alot of his "treasues" in an open space, he dragged his feet. He does this to me everytime. He loves it when its done but doesn't want to be be bothered with the work. So we went around and around for about two hours before he finally got going on it. My son volunteered to help him with the project, which was really great -- my son and I are very close and have done many projects together. But, he hasn't done that many with my husband. My husband is always looking for a project, so that finally got him going.
BUT, during all of this I drank the half of bottle we normally split 2 1/2 glasses -(it was about two in the afternoon). So, I wound up having one and 1/2 more glasses later in the evening. Since it was a weekend, I'm allowed three -- I wound up with 4. So, I was disappointed, more because I have found another trigger that I have to deal with -- the fact that anxiety and/or anger makes me want to grab a drink -- that one is going to be tough to master.
Did well on the cokes (diet cola) though -- only had one yesterday!!
Today, my husband is home (he is semi-retired), therefore we usually have a glass of wine at lunch. This is something I'm going to change at some point, but probably not today. So, I'm looking at three glasses today. One at lunch, one at cocktail hour, and one at dinner.
Hope everybody has a great day! Mine is going to be very hectic so I'm not sure how often I'll be able to stop by, but I will be thinking of all of you!
Much love,
MM
