wow when you have no expectations it is amazing what can happen. The past few days have been really great for me and my children. Im blessed to be an active member of Alanon. with the tools that I have been learning, they have helped me to achieve the peace that I was looking for this season.
I hope that the amazing things were great for you. Sometimes we just have to make the most of where we are when were there. Can you do something small for you and your kids to spice it up a bit? I played yahtzee and trouble with my nine year old last night and we watched a movie in bed together. He was having a bad day and this totally turned it around for him and he was able to sleep well. Things will get better. I have to believe that for you so that I can believe it for me.
I was dreading the holidays this year much like every other. I think my boyfriend goes into some self pity spiral then takes it out on me. This morning he started his introduction to chaos stuff and I declined which is one of the first times. Normally we would have had screaming match and I would have been blamed. This time I did not scream. I removed myself and stopped interacting with him. I did not feel I am in chaos. I have shared my resentment at it but I have not lost my day with it yet.
