Sunday mom, my bro, couple of mom"s fiends, and I went to the beach. it was pretty awesome! The only gross thing that happened there was these two old shribled women decided to go topless and just bounce there "goodies" around all open to the public. one of the ladies was pretty over weight, so her bouncy goodies were rolling around all over the place! And being that it's Hawaii, nobody here will say anything or make you cover up. So we just had to look the other way. LOL Today, my sweetie met up with me at the VA and joined me for my pain management group. I told them how frustrated I've been with Matthew and that our communication has gone to crap. He told them how stressed out he has been with the military trying to get him ready for another Iraq deployment. So they gave us a good talk about communication and supporting each other. I think that Matthew enjoyed the group session because he was in a pretty good mood afterwards.We decided to eat lunch together before he had to go back to base, so we had some time to talk a bit more. He was very sweet to me and when he hugged me, he held on to me tightly. And when he kissed me good bye after wards, he did in way like he missed me. So I take that as a good sign that he was taking their recomendations seriously. Also Dr. Miyake the psychologist that over looks the group is putting in a referral for Matthew and I for special counseling. I'm very excited about the whole thing and I think that Matt is looking forward to it also!
