I work to escape my life, I am successful at work. And every once in awhile, I make a difference there.
At home, I can't cure all that ails, and I can't fix the problems and I can't escape them for any length of time. Which goes against everything I stand for: solving problems is what I do.
I'm working on accepting this...it is really hard. I'm working on the fact that sometimes I'm just gonna feel sad for no real reason, no precipitating event. Like grocery shopping.
I like your list. Those are all good strategies. I like to write things out too. It does help to reread them. I like to put together care packages for my son away at school. He says I'm a cool mom because I send him Dingdongs and Handisnacks.
I appreciate how strongly and consistantly you reach out. It helps.
