....Hey Bonnie :) A planned "not that good" week is sure to be much
better than an unplanned, unconscious binge... I'm sure your
excesses won't do too much damage overall.. Hey it should be fun on
Christmas and just respect your bodies signals...
>Deb, your note was beautiful.. remember to take good care of
yourself for yourself and your little boy is most important. Glad to
hear you have a good attitude and are doing better now!
> Love, Bonnie
....Thanks a lot BonBon and Leelee! I guess experiencing, even sad
and upsetting feelings are better than just going on and being
complacent about something as important as caring for myself....I
have always been someone elses care giver, and waited for someone to
come along and care for me as much as I cared for them....This
should be secondary to self/love (not the narcissistic brand) and
self/care....I realize now that, with God and my little man, Richie,
and of course you great friends! I have all the support I really
need to achieve my dreams. By the way, thanks for mentioning taking
care of myself and my son but, if you knew Richard personally, you
would realize that in many ways, our roles are often reversed...He
cares for me, without fail, when I need a hug or a kind word... He
is the best kid ever! I am often a disfunctional mess at home, just
in terms of my mood swings, and do you know what he said last
night?
"If I could choose any parent in the world, you would always be the
best one for me!" This kid is pure sweetness personified, and more
than once I have wondered what have I done in life to deserve
someone this great? It must have something *reeeealllly* good.
I thank God every day.
Well I was out for about an hour, shovelling snow and scraping off
all the ice and stuff from my car...it was fun and it makes me feel
good to get fresh air and get out of the house.
Now for some coffee and thawing out :)
Peace,
Deb :)
