I won't go into the nitty-gritty details, because I'm sick about thinking about them, but my son did it again as far as homework goes. And lied--bald-faced lied--about it to me. I argued good with...

  Not much to report today. I read some links on passive-agressive behavior yesterday, which were pretty interesting. I liked these 2 key points: 1-it stems from displaced anger, and 2-it...

I forgot to say the other day that I did something slightly naughty...See, I have an app on my phone called "Today's Document". It's photos & docs from the National Archives that have to do with that...

I've probably written before that this past summer, I've been involved in our church's Envisioning Committee/Team. According to our first communication, the commitment involved about 2 weekends over...

Before I forget about them, 2 illogical thoughts/comments from H this weekend:1 - Background: my good friend (the one who I've been spilling my guts to) has a consulting business that she just...

I guess my son was having a hard day yesterday; he said that it seemed that everyone wanted something from him--even me! (more on that later) Anyhow, he was in need of much huggage, so I think I got...

Well, I finally went to the doctor & was in & out of there in record time: half an hour! Got my zithromax prescription, which I filled after work, so now I'm in the healing process. Already my lungs...

I have to say, I'm becoming more & more aware of what is & is not my responsibility. This weekend, we (as church leaders) were required to submit a homework assignment as part of developing our...

I have to say, after reading the detachment chapter, it seems that I've already started to do that!  Before I read it, I wondered how well I'd be able to detach.  Now I know that I am capable,...

The past few weeks I've been focused (maybe hyper-focused!) on trying to resolve my issues, to "work on me" & my half of my relationships. Pretty much all else has been cleared off my plate: women's...

Some thoughts after reading the chapter on "Detaching with Love":Detach from his:blameangeremotionscrisesmoodsinfluencers (friends/family that influence his behavior/feelings)Bottom line: his...

I've been reflecting about what I wrote yesterday, googling certain things (being the analytical that I am) and this is what I'm thinking: whatever the reason he may be acting out/thinking against...

I'm writing this mostly for me, so I won't forget, in case I need it in the future; not out of "scorekeeping".This weekend, we were taking 1 of the laptops to his favorite computer people to fix it...
