Yesterday my Hubby and I scheduled a big talk together
and made it a priority. Some stuff we have been dealing with that has been on
both our minds. We decided to get ready for work early and head down to the
lake and sit by the water (until he convinced me to get in my bathing suit
instead and have our talk in our pool since no kids yet up)
And it was just such a good good talk. Full of trust,
support, honesty. We have managed to work together through a big issue (still
many more steps to come but at least started on the the right path)
I just felt really good about it. And I think he did too.
I am a control freak-it is no secret. My marriage has had
both the benefit and the pity of getting this side of me . Over the years it
has lessened a lot…some situations heighten it…up and down but always there. If
you saw how chaotic I can let my house get you would never believe I was a
control freak. If you saw my to do lists and agenda you would totally agree I
am.
All that to say..Yesterday for probably the first time ever in my life…..I felt like I could
give up a lot of control and still be ok. Be good. Still be me.
I felt light and happy from that talk in the pool and
look forward to a whole lot more
